Hi,
Just wanted to say, I have five dogs. I love them dearly. I became a mother for the first time at 39 years old. I adore my son more than anything in the world, but I love my dogs. It is like having small children around again. I can't truly say my fur babies are the same as a child for me, but they don't miss it far. And, I lost my just turned 17 years old niece last March suddenly and still grieving over her. She was an only child. Since my son will be 20 April 1, he is grown up and my little furbabies have been my comfort and given me so much love this past year. I needed that more than you know. Love your babies and I too use to worry about what others said. When I became a mother at 39 I thought I had to be the oldest mother in the world, but guess what? I met so many women my age, 1st time mothers and we had a wonderful 1st time Mom suport group. Live your own life honey.
Molliemae and Abbi's Mom
