Mama of them all?!

We've been having a goldfish living on our counter in a container for the last four months. Yisrael got it from his Rebbe in the beginning of the school year when they were learning about בריאת העולם and how Hashem created the fish.  Our fish has managed to outlive all his friends, despite our lack of feeding him (sometimes for several days at at time) and the poor standard of his living conditions, which is not cleaned often enough.  I think this proves the theory that the number one cause of death among pet goldfish is being overfed.

Today Bentzi was in the kitchen and took a look at the fish. "Oy, you look so hungry- your Mama doesn't feed you enough, huh?!"

I quickly put Bentzi in his place- "I am NOT his Mama!  B"H I've got five little kids that keep me busy overtime...and he is NOT one of them!"

Don't worry, the fish did get his food....but I just had to set things straight...I am NOT the Mama of them all!
