8.6.12 - Hmm, I now question myself. Is Lassie a pressure or pleasure? I have been quite busy and stressful these two days since she was brought back. My kids enjoy Lassie very much and I can see that they now dare to touch and hold her. I am happy for them. But, my life is quite a mess now that Lassie requires so much care and attention. I have to take care of his pee and poo, stick to his routine meals, make her bed, etc. I cannot leave sight of her. And she is quite a stubborn pup, yeah, she's a beagle after all. So my patience is tested. It's damn hard and stressful.
Actually, I realize that rearing the pup reflect the way I should my kids too. I read a lot from the website and I found out that it is the same way that I should learn to apply to my kids too. My kids deserve care and attention much more than Lassie. I am coming to my senses that I have to nurture my kids with more patience as they are still growing kids. How can I expect them to know everything an adult does. I should understand better what a growing kid needs like what I understand what a beagle need. I understand from months of study about beagles from the net. I know what beagles are like and I can tolerate them because I know that it is their nature. So what about my kids? Do I understand them? Hey I should better start reading about it, to be fair.
Lassie is still so young and she need lots of my time. I have been sleepless and stressful these past days. Hopefully she will adapt and be fine. I am worried.
Apart from my worries, I am quite amused when my kids and I always get excited about Lassie while poor TH failed to blend in. It's like he talk about one thing and we talk about Lassie and Lassie only. Hope he wont get jealous. I do feel that he begins to open up a little when I notice that he checks on Lassie once in a while and stares at her with amusement like he hasnt seen a pup plays before.
Though I am very tired, I have to make sure I wont trouble TH too much as I dont want him to feel that Lassie is a wrong decision. Me and my kids will do a good job, I believe.
