November 13th, 2008 - A Tribute To Lilly

Lilly at 6 months old at the 2004 ACKCSC National Specialty
|
Many of you knew our Lilly Bean, defying the odd's, hand raised from the age of 2 weeks old. Faced with many challanges & learning disabilities, we didn't think she would live to be a year old. Today, just 2 weeks short of her 5th birthday, Lilly crossed over the rainbow bridge. We remember well, just a day over the qualifying age of 6 months, Lilly made, what we knew would be her one & only public appearance, and was shown by Greg at the ACKCSC National, held in Seattle, May 2004. She was very tiny with lots of fluffy coat & at the top of the 'Cute Meter" we couldn't resist, nor could Puppy Sweeps Judge that year, Cindy Huggins. Lilly won, what I suspect was a complimentary 4th place for heart & cuteness a large national puppy sweeps class. Lilly had the heart of a true Champion and she thought she showed like one too. She had a huge ovation from the crowd when she went around the ring, lead by our very own Katie Eldred, front row ring side. She met many new friends that weekend & if you didn't come to meet her, she'd come and introduce herself to you. No-one knew Lilly's story that weekend, little miracles are all around us. This was a special weekend for Greg & I and made Lilly's short but very happy life just that much more enriched. Thank you everyone that had shared in making all of Lilly's life worth living.
