They're Only Shoes...

Lately, usually on just Mondays Athena has a hard time not having us around and she gets very bored and chews things up. Oh, I should mention, she only chews MY things up, mostly my shoes. She always chews up which pair of heels are my favorite at the time.. it’s devastating. The reason this happens on Mondays is because on Sundays we go to my parents or to Dave's parents so she is alone basically from 1-11ish (poor thing). She goes to my parents with us when we go but not to Dave's parent’s house. So Monday morning we wake up at 6am and leave to do various things, and one of us won’t be home until about 2 that day. So she goes through a lot of separation anxiety, so it’s hard for me to be mad at her. First she chewed up my wedding heels, they were SOOOO gorgeous =[ and perfect for any outfit! and they were special to me! I got married in them! Then she chewed up my favorite black pumps, they were sooo sexy, high, and simple. Then this last Monday she got a hold of my Brown wedges. This broke me. I have a lot of emotions since i'm pregnant, soo, I Closed myself in our bedroom and bawled on the bed, than I cleaned up the mess of shoe pieces on our bedroom floor than I went and sat in our closet and shut the door, and sat with my shoes and just bawled and bawled. David does not handle crying and emotions very well so I was not looking to get any sympathy from him. BUT he came and found me in the closet crying with my shoes and he sat down with me and held me and just let me cry. I really needed that 'its ok to cry' touch from him. Than he had to go do something so he leaned over and said 'look at all these shoes she has left you' (meaning she has not chewed them up yet) and he kissed my forehead and told me it would be ok. =] I was like 'WOW!' no one could have handled that any better! Dave totally understands me, and there is no one else I could spend my whole life with. I love him. =] and I even love Athena still hahah

(No matter where something is, Athena can get into it.. its insane. So don't think I leave my beautiful shoes scattered around the house cause I DON'T!)  =]
