3-Year-Old Brings Her Pet Fish To School In Sippy Cup

Lauren did say that the morning Peyton brought the fish into school, she felt like something was up. “Every morning, she feeds Mermaid. When I went over to where she was, she said, ‘No mommy, stay away, don’t come over here!’ Clearly, that was suspicious. I did notice that she spilled the fish food on the floor, so I just told her it was OK and that I would clean up the fish food. It never crossed my mind that she would put Mermaid in a sippy cup.”
