Dog Mom
Before I Was a Dog Mom

Before I was a Dog Mom:


I made and ate hot meals unmolested.
I had unstained, unfurred clothes.
I had quiet conversations on the phone, even if
the doorbell rang.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I slept as late as I wanted
And never worried about how late I got to bed
or if I could get into my bed.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I cleaned my house everyday.
I never tripped over toys, stuffies, chewies
Or invited the neighbor's dog over to play.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I didn't worry if my plants, cleansers, plastic
bags, toilet paper, soap or deodorant were
poisonous or dangerous.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I had never been peed on
Pooped on
Drooled on
Chewed on
Or pinched by puppy teeth.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I had complete control of
My thoughts,
My body and mind.
I slept all night without sharing the covers or
pillow.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I never looked into big, soulful eyes and cried.
I never felt my heart break into a million
pieces when I couldn't stop a hurt.
I never knew something so furry and four-legged
could affect my heart so deeply.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I had never held a sleeping puppy just because I
couldn't put it down.
I had never gotten up in the middle of the night
every 10 minutes to make sure all was well.
I didn't know how warm it feels inside to feed a
hungry puppy.
I didn't know that something so small could make
me feel so important.


Before I was a Dog Mom:


I had never known the warmth,
the joy,
the love,
the heartache,
the wonderment
or the satisfaction of being
A Dog Mom
