i'm a horrible person

a few posts ago, i introduced our sweet little pup.

who's name has already changed 3 times.

she is, in fact, rediculously cute.

rediculously sweet.

rediculously adorable.

but, i am sad to lament that the day-to-day innerworkings of pet ownership have caught me a bit off guard.

from my "already-busy-with-mothering" mom perspective, i didn't even invest thought in the idea that maybe adding a baby puppy into my house already containing two babies might not be a great move.

now i know why my mom, and my mother in law and my friends and my neighbor, and my friend's sister's aunt's boyfriend's doctor's daughter told me that i was out of my mind for getting a 7 week old puppy.

now i get it.

you were all trying to save me the heartache that i now inveitably must bestow upon my family.

my family who undoubtedly loves this little pile of fur and cuteness.

i don't blame them.

she's perfectly adorable.

but i am perfectly irritable and out of sorts.

i think we jumped the gun.

i think i need another year of mothering 2 under my belt before i test the ultimate test of mothering and enter pet ownership.

she is just so stinkin cute.

she was hard to resist.

but i am sad to say i am secretly considering re-homeing her cuteness for someone else to enjoy.

don't tell my son.

my poor, soon-to-be-heartbroken son

so, here is my tribue to my dog.

who may soon be someone else's dog.

and my stone cold heart. (so my husband says )

at least i can look back at this post and remember how beautiful she was

and remember the week we had a dog.

p.s. please don't send me too many "i told you so" comments. i don't think my heart can take it. although i probably deserve it. so go ahead. send them. it serves me right. i should have to bear the pain of my soon to be dog-less children and husband. not sure the hubby will ever forgive me, though. maybe i'll just have another baby to make him forget about the puppy :)
