What A Difference A Day Makes! |

Hormones are powerful things. Yesterday, it was all we could do to keep Gabby in the box with her puppies. She fought us as we tried to get her to lay down with them. Today is completely different. She thinks these little wigglers are pretty special. She’s still tired, and sleeps a great deal (and will for the duration, since taking care of a litter is powerfully draining work). She’s cleaning them today, anxious to get back in with them, but still seems just a little confused as to what happened to her to bring these four little beings into her life. Tomorrow, she will be even more enamored with her little ones, and it’ll be about a week before she willingly leaves them once her mommy switch is fully flipped. To those watching, and to those who wrote me today, thank you for your kind words, and for finding pleasure in one of God’s greatest gifts – new life!
