Putting Me In My Place

We were at the pet store buying yet another water heater for our aquarium, and the girls were looking at all the different tropical fish. It wasn't the most kid-friendly pet store, as the whole bottom row of fish tanks was wide open for little hands to splash in, and I was extremely grossed out to see one of the goldfish tanks had a large number of floaters. Juliette noticed them, too, and asked "Mommy, why are all those fish dead?"

"I don't know, Juliette", was my reply.

"But Mommy, you're a scientist. You're supposed to know!"
