Happy Belated Mother's Day!

[Heidi & Milton]

Mother's Day 2013 was the very first time that I felt like I could truly share in this holiday!  Did I recently pop out a kid, unbeknownst to anyone?  No.  I am a dog mom, and I am proud of my baby boy.  Sure, my boy might be incredibly furry with a big tail, but I have mothered the heck out of that guy for the past year, and I am rather pleased with myself.  Jeff thinks it is ludicrous that I cover Milt's ears when Jeff refers to him as a "dog," but he truly is my real live boy.

Jeff and I both have gone through potty training, emergency doctor visits, and 3A.M. wake-up cries.  We buy Milton food, toys, and toothpaste.  Our social life and fitness level have suffered as I rush out of school each day either to beat the traffic to grab Milt from daycare or to run home to free him after a long day cooped up.  Life is certainly different now that I am a dog mom.  Personally, I think I deserve to celebrate this holiday too.  If being a "mom" is in any way measured by the amount of love that is given to someone you care for, then I know an awful lot of dog "owners" who fully deserve the title of mom as well.

My baby boy loves his momma.

Milt bought me a sweet gift.

He even signed the card!

Whether you are a mother to a child or a dog, I hope you enjoyed your holiday and sincerely felt loved and appreciated.  By the way, Happy Mother's Day once again, Mom and Momeaux!  Jeff, Milt, and I are lucky to have such greats moms in our lives.

Happy belated Mothers Day. Im sure everyone on here will agree that our dogs are not our pets, they are our family.

You are absolutely a mom and good one at that:)  Milton made your day special I see and loves you every bit as much as a human child!  Happy Mother's Day!  The picture of Milt giving you your card and gift is very sweet!

This is cute. I used to get chocolates and cards from the dogs too!  They will always be my first kids.

You are most definitely a mom :)  Just ask Milt...
