We have salt water fish at home, well to be honest we had a tank filled with salt water and rocks, the last fish died a few weeks ago and the forlorn tank kind of sat there for awhile. I finally got the energy to clean the tank rinse the rocks etc....then off to the fish store, water checked out good and so 4 fish came home, 3 are still alive, hehe. One of the survivors is a black and white damsel named Neil Armstrong by my son. He is 9 and has entered his space phase, astronaut is the new job choice, he has been happily devouring his newly acquired space encyclopedia and has been facinated by the Apollo program, ergo...Neil Armstrong.
Now then, Tuesday night science fair at school, the boy child pulls off first place 3rd grade life sciences div. Magnets was the theme, on the way home we start talking about next years project, once we get home he picks a dvd to watch, is it animated...no...is it by disney...no...it is the documentary Planet Earth which santa brought him last year.
So there you have today's musings, the boy child names fish after astronauts, wins science fairs and chooses documentaries to watch...it is a good day to be Dad.
