This photo of his finger and Reagan's meant so much to him. I believe it was in some way a symbol of how he is going to watch over her and guide her through life like he has our children Mikkel and Lex. Marty has been an exemplary father and I know he will be an even better Grandfather. Loved your blog Gina! As you know our dogs have been number one in our house and now they will move over a little so Reagan has room. There is room in our hearts and lives for our dogs, our granddogs and our precious Eeagan to coexist. We love them all! Mikkel was upset when people told her that her pugs would be left out or forgotten when the baby arrived. Not so! There is no limit to how much we can love, whether it is our own child or the pet that is in our lives. By the way, Marty took over the job of walking Willy and Bruce, the two pugs of Mikkel and Pat's while I helped Mikkel with our little Reagan. Marty did change some diapers too and of course held her as much as he could. It was so wonderful to see Marty’s face when our little Reagan was born.

Blah blah pet-lovers hate people, blah blah pets are stupid, blah blah. Fortunately, the spam filter is grabbing Teh Hates and sending their comments to pre-oblivion. Unfortunately, the spam filter also seems to be grabbing other comments as well. If you lose a comment, <a mailto:petconnection@gmail.com rel="nofollow">e-mail us</a> and we'll liberate it. Unless you're a pet-hating idiot, in which case, get a life. Or therapy. Or both.

See, it was worthwhile having her so I can read her post Monday. Shame I cannot get my first-born to post or comment too, but he concentrates his attention on humans ills, so that eliminates that possibility. Maybe I will teach my cats to make comments--no, I don't think that would work, either. Ah, well---------! You have plenty of people to keep this blog at high speed--not to worry about additional additions, me thinks. Great!

Someday soon Dr. Narda will post to this blog, I assume. So babies could be a good blessing to some people that want them. However, I understand that some women don't want children and I am very comfortable with that.

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:54:14 +0000 http://www.petconnection.com/blog/?p=10082#comment-478506 My mother and I were discussing the days before birth control. There wasn't much "choice." In fact that wasn't even in most women's vocabulary when it came to having children. We are so lucky to be able to assess our personalities and make our choices. I'm sure a lot of women had children without really wanting them. I love my children to depths of my being, but babies are hard work. Puppies are potty trained so much faster! I was never one to run across a room and ask if I could hold the baby. I'm still not. Some people are just not "baby" people. I love the photo! Very sweet. Blessings and congrats on the newest member of the family. Sarah's obviously not a "puppy" person. Too bad for her. My mother and I were discussing the days before birth control.
