I got only a glimpse because I was driving and this particular overpass makes a serious curve away from the setting sun. Nevertheless, I shared a spectacular moment with Courtney. She has dementia, so every lucid moment is important.
As we drove along, she kept looking back and naming the colors in the sky and I enjoyed the few minutes that she was able to verbalize the most stunning event. This, dear readers, was a rare moment. Most of the time she cannot remember her children nor can she express herself in a complete sentence.
As quickly as the moment came, it was gone. I was left with gratitude and my memory of her revelry in life's moments.
I'll leave you with two of my own sunset art quilts from my Trunk Show Quilts board. Have a wonderful week!

What a special moment.
What a spectacular sunset and what a beautiful moment to share with your sister.
It really was. We are losing these opportunities as her disease progresses.
It's sad to see her dementia progress. I want her to enjoy these moments as much as possible.
