I'm sitting here crying. This morning Lucy and I played ball! She ran like a little puppy, chasing, prancing, and tail wagging a mile a minute. I never dreamed this day would come, though you all said that someday it would. It was the snapshot of a moment in time I will hide deep in my heart and always treasure. I quickly pulled out the camera to forever capture the moment. I remember everyone's wise words, and treasure each day with this little girl, and try not to think about what tomorrow might bring. Finding her, old, sick, and hungry, in the middle of the road on a snowy night last March was one of the most blessed days of my life. She has brought me more joy in this short time than words can ever express. She is the light of my life! With her dementia, today was such a special gift. Today, for just a little while, she was a happy, carefree puppy again. I just had to share this moment with my friends. I knew you would all understand.
