A Little Understanding

I think that I understand the "back and forth" that Margaret is going through on the issue of "Do we get a dog?".

For what it is worth, my family wants a dog as well. But I don't think that I am up for it yet. Another baby human, sure, that work would be fine. But a baby canine, I just don't think I am willing to put out the same work for a dog. Yet anyway.

And I grew up having dogs. I loved having my dog as a kid. Our boys will get one, eventually.

Just not quite yet.
