my son the dog...

My son now thinks he's a dog. At first I found it funny seeing him bark and all, but I got worried when he starts licking me and the furniture. Why, of all people he can look up to, is he fascinated of dogs? Naalala ko tuloy si Scout. See, Scout was our first baby before Skye. I got the name from one of Demi Moore's daughters, Scout LaRue. She was a rottweiler which Mick bought using his share from his bonus then. I was pregnant by the time we had scout. She was only two months old, I think, but she was big, and cute, and still cuddly. We thought it would be a good way of practicing parenthood since the pup is like a baby. She would sleep in our bed, we trained her to do her thing outside, and she was the only other girl my husband kisses. Things, however, changed as she grew up. There were the loud barks, the monstrous consumption of dog food that ate a lot of our budget, the stinky smell, and the scary idea that she would think she's still cuddly and attack me in all my pregnant glory. And so the decision was made to sell scout and keep our sanity. It was hard letting her go, but it has to be done.

With Skye, it was nice that he now serves as the reincarnation of our first baby, but please! Can someone tell me if this behavior is normal????

I miss Mick. Last night, I heard Carrie Bradshaw say on a "sex and the city" rerun that "two halves make a whole, but two of their halves make a whole lot of mess". Hehehe... Maybe we are a riot, but I agree that things are better for me EMOTIONALLY when he's here. That is some sacrifice I am willing to make, but too damn hard to accomplish. He told me over the phone that I can do it, and I know I can too, I just hope I get the cellphone and a three-day stay in Palawan I deserve after all these .
