Bambi and Dead Goldfish

World War III broke out at our house on the release of Walt Disney's Bambi on DVD. My 4 year old daughter was convinced that Bambi was a girl, and trying to get her to think otherwise only broke down all hope of rational conversation. To put it bluntly, there was much screaming and gnashing of teeth. Bambi is now a girl.

Her outcry could also be the result of both her birthday goldfish floating to the top just the day before. She got the goldfish to test all of us on our competence with pets. We failed miserably. My 1 year old daughter decided to share her milk with the fish, and our lack of knowledge on how to handle such a situation didn't fare too well. They lasted only three days in the Bruner home. They were scrawny and pretty lethargic when we first got them, so who knows how well the "Walmart associates" took care of them before we adopted the poor things. They were doomed from the start.
