I didn't know

I didn't know that a 7 year old animal lovin' little lady could turn her Mother's germaphobic ways and make her love animals ALMOST as much as she does. So much has it changed my ways that the smallest of our fur babies sleeps in my bed right next to me. He is my little boy as much as I love Misty and Maxx they just aren't "mine".

I didn't know that if you have 3 dogs you have to have 3 different types of dog food. Misty has to have Pedigree weight control, Maxx of course has to have Pedigree Puppy Food and Tiger eats Pedigree for small breads. Crazy!

I never knew how fast puppies grew. I think the Puppy food is doing it's job I thought babies grew fast that is nothing compared to how much Maxx has grown in the past 3 weeks. I guess it makes since if they are basically full grown in 1 year.

I never knew I could be the kind of person to happily support my husband in a wonderful job opportunity and move 7 hours from my home and all those that I love. I just really didn't think I had that inside of me.

I never knew how much I would miss the one's I love and how things would be so different. I am so busy, they are so busy and we don't get to talk near as often as I would like.

I never knew how much a phone call would mean to me when the people that truly love me take the time to call and show they really truly care! Even from so far away!

I wonder?

I wonder if it's weird that every time I see a funeral procession I cry. I try not to but I can't help it. . .or when I see a child doing some performance that obviously took training and natural ability tears just fall right out of my eyes! In fact I cry while watching TV so often my husband makes fun of me by showing fake support! "Oh Honey are you going to be okay" while gently patting my sholder!

I wonder if I should share that I had to take 2 of my children for their annual well child check ups recently. New pediatrician new things. This Pediatrician does annual tests which include a finger stick. One of said children saw the other child have this done and decided it was for the birds. Said child locked herself in the bathroom. It took us 15 minutes to unlock the door - another 15 minutes of myself and 4 nurses trying to talk said child into coming out from under the sink. Didn't happen so said child had her finger stuck while under the sink in the bathroom. The sweet nurse whom was so patient took said child and gave her about 50 stickers.

If you would like share with me what you never knew or maybe what you wonder I would love to hear them.
