Today was one of the toughest days. I had to put my 14 yr. old dog to sleep. My husband and I buried our dog with our 7 and 4 yr old children this morning. We wanted to get out of the house and get our minds off the sadness, so we went to a Mall in our area that we had not been to in a long time. We were walking along and low and behold there was a Disney store there! This was totally unexpected. The kids were so excited! We had a really fun and enjoyable time browsing and buying new Disney items. We got into the Disney music piped into the store and were momentarily transported into a fun and magical place without sadness and pain. I know this might seem trite to those who don't love Disney, but I never expected this experience and how it could bring us to a happy place, even if only for a little while. Disney will never replace by beloved little dog, but it has given us just a moment away to realize the happy things in life.
