Day 1: Lazy Dog

This is part of my every day life. Rascal is my baby. I treat him just like he is my own child. He's been with us almost a year now. Will, my fiance, and myself decided that we would get a dog following our miscarriage in July of 2010, to help me with the loneliness. He has helped me immensely. No one really understands the power of an animal to help with depression until they've been in that spot. Having a dog to take care of, even though he's not a human child, after a miscarriage has brought me a greater sense of peace in my life. Although, my little brat can't help remove the pain of losing our child, he has become a staple in our everyday lives just like he is our child.

I love this booger more than anything. He's always there to cuddle me when I need him or to be a complete goof when he's playing with his food.

Momma l♥ves you Rascal
