My First Baby

I’ve talked about my first baby before right here, and today, I’m going to talk about him again. Today is the first day my kids know a world without Ollie in it, and I can’t even begin to tell you how sad that makes me. I brought this little fur ball home, despite protests from Scott and despite the fact I didn’t have the money to spend on him. I charged him. The second I walked in with him, he stole everyone’s heart, including Scott’s. He was the best stupid financial decision I ever made. I was beside myself as a first time momma and he went everywhere with me. When the human babies came, Ollie freaked out just a bit, then accepted the change and embraced it. It’s always nice to have your own chauffeur, I guess. More kids, just meant more loving, and Ollie made room in his heart for Jackson, although I think he was hoping this was going to be it as far as human babies. So, today we lost our Ollie and that makes for a sad, sad day.  I have to agree with Christian, losing your dog is like losing all your very best friends. We are going to miss our Ollie-hondro, but the good part is all his hurts are gone and he’s probably in heaven right now playing chase with Dixie. Damn, I’m going to miss this dog!
