Mommy decided to do the next best thing and make a new fishie for Mouse.
First gather your supplies:
Orange Craft Foam, Green construction paper, Blue Crinkle Paper, Black marker, Scissors, Glue, Cotton and an empty Coffee Jar.
I used the Blue paper to add to the bottom of the jar, now your "tank" has water in it!
Take the inside plastic seal out of the glass lid. Make a little hole in the centre, thread some cotton through and glue it in place.
Now you can cut out a fishie from the craftfoam, add a small hole {I found it is easiest if you thread the other piece of the cotton with a needle through the fish} tie the cotton and attach the plastic liner to the lid again.
Add some green construction paper plants and you are done!

Poor old Ross, may he rest in peace. Super-cute replacement, though! We are smack in the middle of a very fishy two weeks, so if you think Mouse's heart can take it after the tragic loss, come see what we have been up to at Joyful Mama's Place! Kisses and hugs to you both!
Super CUTE!
Going to remember this one!
