I should tell you about a nifty arrival this past week. The other day, a warm glow appeared out from the other end of the bridge. And I saw two tiny lights. They sparkled. And danced. And then a form took hold. It was Einstein. He looked magnificent. Once blind, he now has vision as great as the sparkle in his eyes. When he crossed over, I introduced myself to him, and explained where he was. He looked back over his shoulder and a tear began to roll down his furry cheek. Oh no! But when I went to tell him it was alright, he told me it was a happy tear. Just then, out of the Heather, Vella arrived. "Just in time, weren't they Einstein." With a warm smile he replied yes. I wanted to take him to show him the sights, and then Einstein said, no,,,, he wanted to show ME the sights. So we walked off to the reflecting pond to look in on their mom and dad. Einstein proudly announced that was his home. He showed me where he lived, where he slept and his new housemates. He walked me through a typical day of when they ate, saw people, played and everything. I loved seeing this new place. All the neat blankets and things. Wow. And it was extra nice that I had a tour guide in Einstein. He sure is smart. And this sure was a switch from the normal routine. Vella and Einstein seemed like kindred spirits. They really enjoyed showing me how much of a gift their life was, especially with their mom and dad. I had to remind them that they were the gift. It was really nice to see them together. And together forever. [Posted in FML issue 5037]
