Thank you all so much for your input and different perspectives on my situation. Each of your replies has been very helpful for me.
My husband knows how I feel about the situation - and he has told me numerous times that if I wanted to get the other Chi, then we would go pick her up. He's been very supportive. However, I would be the primary caregiver to her. Don't get me wrong, when he is home from work he is a great help! He loves and cares for all our babies in a wonderful way, but I am the one home the most and so I am around them a lot more.
Crystalsmom - I think you are right. And I do feel so terrible about not getting the first Chi.
I've been contemplating every possible scenario of what if we do/do not get her, and they all seem the same! If I do get her I may feel overwhelmed, and if I do not get her I will feel so guilty and terrible. I think another reason I feel this way (of the many) is because our youngest Yorkie is the neediest and she adores my attention. She is a very jealous girl and I am afraid that she would be upset by bringing in another baby. Have any of you faced that problem before?
I am just torn. Thank you all so much for your help! |
