A Month of Thanks - Day 15

Today, I'm thankful that Oskar and George love their sister almost as much as we do.  A fear that weighed heavily on me when Emeline came home was whether or not they will get along, be accepting of one another and eventually love each other.  I had my worries in the beginning...  We visited the vet for one of them every other week for 5 weeks with vomiting,  diarrhea and George even got round worms.  We had a liver scare with George as well, but it all turned out to be him adjusting to new life with a baby.  All of those costly vet trips were the boys adjusting to no longer being the center of our attention every day.  Now, if you know us, they are still the center of our world - we include them in everything we do with Emeline.  It's just an adjustment because their world will never be quite the same.  And now, they are embracing their new world as big brothers to Emeline.  It warms my heart to see them together.  George cuddles with Emeline and lets her pet him, he plays with her and they even share their toys.  Oskar is Emeline's protector, checking on her every chance he gets and when he see she's okay, he gives her a big kiss right on the lips and Emeline giggles.  She is absolutely fascinated by both of them.  Always trying to pet them and her eyes follow their every move.  All she has to do is look at one of them and her face lights up and she lets out her cute deep giggle.  Oh how I love my little family.  I'm so very blessed.  

Oskar check on Emeline every single time she's in the bath.

Just catching up on current affairs (literally these days) and petting her dog.
