Meet Red and Fred

These are Sparky's new neon fish. Ever since Sparky learned to walk he has walked on his toes whenever possible. This was fine when he was a toddler, but at the ripe old age of 9 it is time for this habit to come to an end. So, I did what any good parent would do, I bribed him. I told Sparky that if he could walk on his flat feet for 1 week then I would buy him a fish. He managed to make it through a week (with a few reminders) and so last night he got his fish. They will live in his room and he will be responsible for them (because I don't clean fish tanks). Now he just has to keep walking on his feet or Red and Fred are going to find themselves living in the basement.
