Fluffy The Fish

Lexi decided she would like to have a fish. I thought a small fish would be a good exercise in responsibility - having to feed it and clean the bowl. But in order to get it she had to earn it. She had a list of eight tasks that needed to be done every day, Monday through Friday without arguments or reminders. She had to:
Get dressed
Brush teeth
Do morning stretches
Take vitamins
Drink all water during the day
Do evening stretches
Get into jammies
Brush teeth

She did very well, and earned her fish in two weeks. She was lucky to have her cousins here today to help her pick out her new friend. His name is fluffy, and we're all happy to welcome him to our home.
