Iliana lost her first pet last night, Rosy the Betta Fish. We committed her to the earth this afternoon in quiet space beside the house.
Iliana made a small burial pouch.
Looking at these pictures later, Iliana wondered why she looked so sad.
We said a few words.
Then we busied ourselves with our morbid task.
Iliana covered and dressed the grave site.
We marked it with a wooden cross. This weekend, we are scheduled to visit the pet store for another betta fish.
