Pearl's first post

Gentle readers! Pearl here. I finally found a free moment to write while the pups are napping quietly. Don't they look sweet and peaceful!

It's difficult to find the chance to step away, as the pups nurse nearly ALL the time (day and night), and in those few moments when they aren't nursing, they like to nap on my paws. I'll be nursing them for at least the next four weeks; then my trusty humans will start to take over feeding duties by giving them a tasty gruel.

Earlier today I got to take a quick bath which was very nice. (When you are a mom, you have so little time for yourself).

Uh, oh - break time over; the little ones have noticed my absence and have started squeaking. My, what healthy lungs my babies have! :-)
