She would ride her all the time. She'd take her school work and sit out in the pasture and do it while on her back. Or she'd stand up on her back and pick apples from the tree. But her horse had a quirky side and threw her often. One time it was really bad and I got rid of her. I think my daughter never forgave me for that!<br /><br />I pray you get a wonderful beautiful foal for your granddaughter!Miss Hillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13422851284570747539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-4725310285267102042011-06-20T23:55:54.451-05:002011-06-20T23:55:54.451-05:00Hi sweet Sherri, you are so welcome.

A trip to the vet school late at night, knowing the decision we would have to make; really, I allowed HER to make the decision. Even though my Ally is 19, I saw her grow up that night. It was tough; a very sad night. We had our horse cremated. There is a story for animal lovers called the "Rainbow bridge". You can google that and read about it. Its where our pets are waiting for us and where we will met them again.

Also, how does one know when a horse is with foal?

Living out on a farm your animals become best friends. It was neat to see how her daddy handled it all. He lost a dog when he was about her age. It was his hunting dog. I remember the day well. He packed him up and went to the river, by himself. That is where the dog was with.....almost all of his life. Hunting down at the river with Josh. I had not seen our son ever hurt so much. Now he is returning compassion........because he has tasted sorrow. <br />Thank you for leaving a comment. It made me smile~ Hugs!Linda Stubbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426448231922088501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6551696592048647882.post-58825948258298005222011-06-20T13:00:39.200-05:002011-06-20T13:00:39.200-05:00OK . . .
