Goodnight George

The Platt household is in mourning tonight. Fuss’s fish, which Santa brought him, and can be seen in this post

has died.
This is not going over at all well with Fuss. He’s full of questions, and his heart is broken. He thinks that George’s heart is broken as well.
We have put George in the freezer (slightly undignified to be put in the freezer in a baggie), to bury properly in the spring when the ground thaws. Then, Fuss wants to make a stone to put over the spot. Fuss has a special tree that was planted in honour of his Christening and George will be buried under it.
However, for the moment, there is much grief and tears.
Not one of the fun parts of parenting despite the learning involved….
Enjoying the journey, Amanda
