S/O Puppies

No, we're not getting another dog!

However, Sierra's puppy post reminded me to share something that was said to me last night.  I was at a family friend's birthday party and someone I haven't seen in awhile asked me how our dog was.  I told her Miller passed away in February and how it happened, and casually said "Oh we'll probably get another puppy sometime soon" (not really, I was just making small talk). 

Her response is "Better a puppy than a baby!".  

Huh?   I just laughed and then thought about how bad she's going to feel when she finds out from my mom that I'm pregnant (this is a church friend who is my parents age).  I'm not offended in any way, but I just wonder why people say things like that.

  • Um. That's a really weird statement.

    Plus, at least babies don't eat your shoes.

  • My mom always said that puppies are waaay worse than babies.  Her line was "at least you can diaper a baby".
