Trying to Save a Fleeting Funny Moment....

These are the times I wish I could write our little family episodes down and have them come out like Karen McQuestion's do. But before this little moment is lost in all the other little ones to come, I have to try my hand at this.

The Players
Student-of-the-Quarter-award goldfish named Darlin'
One-for-sissy-too goldfish named Rainbow
Student of the Quarter: 7-year-old named GG
Sissy: GG's almost-four-year-old sister, BK
Nana: Grandma
Pop-Pop: Great grandpa

Note: Darlin' and Rainbow stay at Aunt K's house where they are more likely to live as long and healthy lives as possible, and where the girls can visit them often.

At this time, GG and BK are visiting Nana who lets them call Pop-Pop on the phone.

GG: So, how are our fish?
Pop-Pop: Those were the BEST little fish I ever had.
Pop-Pop hears a huge inhale and GG yelling (thankfully away from the phone speaker): NANA! Pop-Pop ATE our fish!!!
Pop-pop hears a tussle over the telephone receiver; BK wants a turn to talk to him. She finally wins. Pop-Pop waits anxiously to see what BK has to say about this fish episode.
BK's burning question: "Pop-Pop, did you fry them?"

Maybe you just have to hear the story first hand.
