It's a sad day today, and yesterday was even sadder. Cameron's very most absolutely favorite fish died last night from causes unknown (we think the pH in the tank was wrong for this type of fish, even if the other fish really like it). We buried Ealie (he was a tire track eel) in the back yard today. Cameron expresses his grief very well, and Ealie's death brought that out. So we had a small funeral, and buried Ealie in the back yard.
The final grave, with a stone that Dad can move when he mows the yard.
The gravestone, a rock that the boys found in the construction site next door.
"Tamping" down the grass over the grave.
Cameron used permanent markers to write, "Here lies Ealie Nichols" complete with a picture of him in the tank.
