A friend sent me this if you need a reminder of WHY you are going through all this ... Before I Was a Dog Mom (author unknown) I made and ate hot meals unmolested. I had unstained, unfired clothes. I had quiet conversations on the phone, even if the doorbell rang. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I slept as late as I wanted  And never worried about how late I got to bed  or if I could get into my bed. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I cleaned my house every day.  I never tripped over toys, stuffies, chewies  Or invited the neighbor's dog over to play. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I didn't worry if my plants, cleansers, plastic bags,  toilet paper, soap or deodorant were poisonous or dangerous. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I never had been peed on  Pooped on  Drooled on  Chewed on  Or pinched by puppy teeth. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I had complete control of  My thoughts,  My body and mind.  I slept all night without sharing the covers  or pillow. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I never looked into big, soulful eyes and cried.  I never felt my heart break into a million pieces  when I couldn't stop the hurt.  I never knew something so furry and four-legged  could affect my heart so deeply. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I had never held a sleeping puppy just because I  couldn't put it down.  I had never gotten up in the middle of the night  every 10 minutes to make sure all was well.  I didn't know how warm it feels inside to feed a hungry puppy.  I didn't know that something so small could make  me feel so important. Before I was a Dog Mom:  I had never known the warmth,  the joy, the love, the heartache,  the wonderment  or the satisfaction of being  A Dog Mom.

Go right ahead ... I got it from a blog where it was unattributed (author unknown).

Oh no, don't stop posting the pictures. He is so cute and I enjoy the picts so much. Love watching them grow up even if it is just through pictures. He is so cute and growing like a weed. He looks bigger already.
