From the day she was a tiny puppy to her last moments, Spice always found her place in the sun. She taught me that—like plants—we need sunshine, water, and love to grow. Whether sprawled out in a deck chair, curled in the garden, or pinning me down in the grass to join her, she reminded me to pause, breathe, and soak in the light. And every day, I sang her “You Are My Sunshine”—a song she answered with kisses, as if to say, “Yes, I am.” Spice was more than my dog; she was my sunshine, my teacher, and the light of my life.
