Our tragic loss

It is with sincere sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved blue friend, Doorstep. Although many did not have the chance to spend time with our new family member, his 4 days in our household brought many fun and enjoyable moments.

OK - seriously, thats pretty bad that we couldn't keep a betta fish alive in our house for longer than 4 days! Maybe Madelyn spiked his water with some apple juice? Who knows, but we'll always remember our first fish - as slow moving and boring as he was. Maybe the next one will provide us with more entertainment.

I am so sorry for your loss. Seeing as though Madelyn is a possible suspect, I think you may want to consider another possible perpetrator...One Ben Jones! He surely had the motive and opportunity. Haha. Yeah, Betas are kind of hard to kill....maybe you should try a hermit crab. Love you guys!
