A fish called “Squirt”

 

Every time we go to Wal-Mart to do our grocery shopping, Peyton has to stop and see the fish.  So, on one of our last trips, Daddy on a whim decides to ask Peyton if he would like a fish.  Of course Peyton says “Yay, Yay, Yay!”  as he dances around in the cart.  So we pick out a fish he likes.  He got a pretty blue male beta.  We found him a nice bowl, a little decor for his new pad, and we were on our way.  I like fish, actually.  They aren’t like dogs that you have to constantly clean up after and bathe.  They don’t bark or bother you at 4:30 in the morning because they need to pee.  They are just good pets. So, we ask Peyton what he was going to name is new fish friend, and he says, “Squirt.”  I believe that came from the baby turtle on Nemo because he has a Target magazine he reads on the potty (there is a thomas Train in it, so he thinks it is his Thomas magazine) and there is a picture of ole Squirt.  Every time we see the turtle, we say “there’s Squirt.”  So, meet our new pet fish, Squirt!
