The Mommy's Place

Our family has a dog named Dottie.  We adopted her from the animal shelter about a year ago.  We adopted her at my husband’s request as I like pets, but was not brought up with one in my own home.

I like our pet and especially my son loves his dog.  My husband has always been the one to feed her and make sure she had water etc.  I know she is our but the full responsibility for her care is his.  We agreed on this when we adopted her.  But… I read this story today that touched my heart and made me appreciate our beloved pet.

How Could You?

Ths is a real tear jerker

Today the baby had a doctor’s appt early at 10am.  It’s been an odd morning.  The baby is healthy except he has a bit of delay in some of his gross motor skills.  We are going to have a therapist come to our home and work with him to improve the skills he is falling behind on.

It is always hard for a mom to hear that her baby is lacking or behind in anything.   Doctor seem to think he will catch up in due time.  I pray he is right.

The baby also had an allergic reaction to walnuts the other day so he had to have blood drawn today.  They did this in order to check for any other food allergies he might have.  It was horrible having to watch the nurse draw blood from my little guys arm.  I am was very glad when it was over.

We are finally home again, I am mentally tired at the moment.  It’s time to get lunch ready and feed my boys.
