Heeling--for the first time

My beak (fur baby) does not heel==not in the traditional sense of dog's heeling--but he does heal in medical terms. He seems to be getting better every day--althought I don't want to jinx it. My little fur baby has taught me so much since his operation experience.

1.) I was a stay at home mom Tues-Sun and it was impossible to leave him today--I might have to be a stay at home mom during the day and just work at night if we have kids
2.) You should always advocate for what you want/need. For the first time I was too passive, with the kennel--I should have had my sister in law get him out of there and take him home when I had a bad feeling. It is important to know when I am powerless and when there is more I can do.
3.) Always listen to (and act on) your bad (and good) feelings.
4.) As parent, my DH and I will be totally overprotective freaks.
5.) I have a lot of love to give--and besides the neurosis--I will be a devoted and loving mother.
6.) Almost losing something you love, can really change your perspective on things.
7.) I will perpetually be a caregiver.
8.) This moment is all we have--you never know.
9.) Don't look forward to things too much, you never know if you are rushing toward something that might not turn out well.
10.) I have the best dog in the world!! And a great husband too--All around I am a lucky girl, not matter how much it seems that I am having a bad run of things, it all depends on how you look at it.

My hope for today--HEAL doggie.
