Fishing With Granddad

Travis and the boys went fishing with Granddad at the neighborhood lake. They (Daddy) caught three fish. When they brought them back to the house to cook, I looked at them swimming in the cooler and made the mistake of muttering something about how it was a shame we had to kill them. West heard me and had a complete meltdown, sobbing about how we couldn't kill his friends the fish. Meanwhile, Cash – my budding sociopath – was dancing around the kitchen singing about how he couldn't wait to eat them after we killed them. This did not help West calm down. I finally sent Travis and West and the cooler with two of the fish in it back to the lake. While they were setting those fish free, Granddad cleaned and cooked the remaining fish for Cash. It ended up to be about four bites. Cash loved it and luckily had eaten it up by the time Travis and West got back home.

Safety first when fishing – always wear a helmet!
