Our Five Ring Circus: Goodbye, Bob

Goodbye, Bob

It was a rough morning in our house today. Dylan's beloved frog, Bob, died overnight.


Dylan found him this morning, and spent over an hour crying. The crying has stopped, but he keeps telling me how much he misses Bob. My heart was breaking for him today.

To be honest, I'm upset too. I didn't want Bob at first, but he turned out to be a really cute pet. I loved watching him, and I'm sad that he's gone. It happened so suddenly. He has been acting completely normal, and I had no idea anything was wrong.

Dylan loved Bob, and spent so much time holding him and talking to him. He's so sad, and I wish I could take his pain away.

Bob was loved and will be missed!

  7. May Bob rest in peace in a heaven of lily pads. Poor Dylan. There is a book out there for toddlers called "Why Do Dinosaurs Die" and it goes through everything from relatives to pets.
