I am delighted to announce we've added a new member to our family...Lucy. Lucy is a very sweet two year old Lab mix. We brought her home last Friday from an animal rescue organization in Aldi, VA. It feels like she has always been with us. And after just 5 days, I can't imagine life without her.
Lucy is a rockstar. She is simply amazing. I am not sure entirely sure what the past 2 years were like for Lucy as she has no training whatsoever. She is terrible on the leash and doesn't even know what the word "sit" means. It's truly sad that no one spent any time with her. We are working to change all that. Sometimes I see her give us a huge smile and I think she totally gets it that we were meant to be her family and she ours. I really don't know who rescued who more.
Sam thought she had taught Lucy how to play fetch, but upon closer inspection we discovered Lucy had Sam running after the ball each and every time. Ha! We then had to teach Lucy AND Sam what to do. Lucy does a pretty good job now going after the ball and bringing it back.
She loves to snuggle. Which is a good thing, because we love to snuggle with her. And she has the cutest little snore when she falls asleep. The kids are loving it that she wants to sleep in their bed at night. This is a brand new thing to fight over...who gets Lucy in their bed? We've been alternating nights.
I'd say Lucy has me wrapped around her finger pretty tightly. I am so ridiculously in love with her. So is Sam and Ian. And between me and you, I do believe Lucy is growing on Jeff. She is a pretty fantastic match for our family.
