INTRODUCING.........

...the newest member of the pratten household.

and his name is..........
"CHESTER, JOOMBA FESTER, COVE, SUNNIE, MR MIAGI, BLUIE, FISH, SQUISHY PRATTEN"

in other words the poor thing doesn't have a name.
although every member of the family has called him "squishy" at some time today so maybe that is the name that will stick.

this is his second bowl because he was actually living in my crystal vase up until today - so he has been downgraded from 5 star accomodation to 3 star.....lol
i must say, he seems much happier in this bowl.
he has been happily swishing his tail about this afternoon and chomping on frozen blood worms (a treat that he will get every few days)

the kids have faithfully promised that they will help me keep his tank clean - i have cleaned it out every time to date and had kait not helping matters by squealing every time i almost caught him in the net. she is convinced i will "break him" - can you break a fish...???

i scrapped 2 los today - well completed one i have been struggling with for a few days and whipped the other one up in just over 2 hours.
i will share them when i get them scanned.

thanks to all of you who agreed with the rather biased mum who posted a pic of her rather gorgeous kids in her blog yesterday - your comments were gratefully appreciated.
i am grateful everytime i come to post in my blog and i notice that people have taken the time to read what i have written - although at times it must be a chore for you all.

my kait is off to school for her first day of grade 4 !!!
noooooooo....where did my baby go....???
this will be the first year that she has had a male teacher - it will be an interesting year for both her and mr witchard.

i hope you have a great day tomorrow.
may your day be filled with smiles and laughetr and happy moments that will make your heart sing
