Self evaluation is never easy, but from time to time we all have to do it. At times I feel like a servant to my children.....a nanny, an au pair or a maid. As a master to my new dog I feel in total control! I've never felt so empowered! It took getting a dog for me to realize all that I have learned. "Sit, stay....good boy!" I don't have to worry hurting the dog's feelings or him holding a grudge.

Ha! I now realize what my husband was talk about.....I am too soft on my children! I don't intend on treating my children like a dog but......things are about to change. For the better:)
