Lucy and I recently took a trip back to my parents' house in Maryland--the second one we've made this summer. Luc LOVES these visits home because there are tons of people around for her to snuggle with, chase, and sleep on top of. She really is such a pack animal.

As the perfect Jewish dog-grandma, Grandma Tru's
first words were, "She's too skinny! Are you eating enough?" |
 |
| Meeting Hannah and Sam! I observed that if Hannah and Sam produced a dog child, it would look like Lucy |
 |
| Distracting Grandpa Richard from his work |
 |
| Proudly brining Lamby to show grandpa |
 |
| Whenever someone took a seat, Lucy was there! |
 |
| Love fest with Julia |
 |
| She LOVED Bairy's calming presence |
 |
| Danish Grandpa!!! |

This recent trip allowed me to easily see so many signs of the progress she/we have made in the last 2.5 months together. We made our first Maryland visit only about 2 weeks after Lucy's adoption, and we were both on edge through much of the trip: I was anxious about Lucy being anxious, and in the end, I was deeply troubled by how much happier she seemed at my parents' house. This time, neither the transition to my parents' place or the transition back to Ohio felt like some dramatic leap. Lucy seemed perfectly happy and relaxed in both places. We're making it work!
