I posted this before.. from a blog that I have read for about 3 years. It is about a family who's mom was stricken with LouGehrigs disease, in the prime of her life.. while she was training to run a marathon.
Anyway, here is part of an update from a few days ago. The blog includes pics of Miley with the daughter of the blog owner. The daughter.. Darcy did hear from they Miley peeps, and went to the movie set, as was promised. Pretty cool stuff.
"We (Marcy, Darcy, Cricket, and I) went to the mall for shoes for Darcy. She had seen a sale ad and wanted to see what they had. We entered the mall through the food court so Darcy could have a slice of S'barro pizza and to give Paige (working at Dairy Queen) a gardenia that Marcy asked us to pick for Paige. Darcy also returned some things at Claire's.
That's when I received the "Father of the Day" award for yesterday:
While at Claire's, Marcy and Darcy were looking at the wall of Hannah Montana merchandise. I was looking out the door at people passing by. A trio (mom, teen boy, and teen girl) passed by and I heard the girl say something. I got Darcy's attention and told her, "If that girl is not Mylie Cyrus, she looks and sounds just like her."
The trio had already passed Claire's, but Darcy walked quickly ahead of us, stalking them into Sears, looking to see if it was her. By the time we caught up with them, Darcy was posing for a picture with Mylie Cyrus. I introduced our family to the mom - Tish Cyrus - and told her of the time Billy Ray came up to us and introduced himself to us after a movie at our theater. Tish said she remembered him telling her about Cricket. She told Darcy she should come by the movie set sometime and gave Darcy her email address. Darcy also got Mylie's autograph.
The boy sat looking bored while we talked and Darcy was star struck. Darcy later told me Mylie introduced him as Lucas. I Googled him this morning and it was Lucas Till - Mylie's love interest in the movie they are shooting now - a new actor.
Darcy was actually trembling for 15 minutes after the meeting and couldn't wait to get home to email Tish to find out when and where she should go to visit the set."
