If life here on this earth were perfect, no one would ever want to leave it to go to Heaven. That little thought has carried me through many a hard time and made it all seem like things were just the way they *should* be, even if they weren't the way I *wanted* them to be. <br /><br />I'm sorry you miss your horses though. Missing the love of a favorite kind of animal is never easy.

I still have ol' Sandy-girl, but she's gettin' up there. I didn't think she'd make it through the winter, but since it was such a mild one, she's still kickin'. It'll be a sad day when she leaves us. I've only had her for 4 years, but she's the best horse I've ever had - she's never bucked, balked, or uan off with me or the kids. Preschooler has thrown temper tantrums on her back while in the middle of unfamiliar territory and she never flinched. There'll be a break from horses after her, but I'd like to think that we'll get a few when the kids get older. <br />As much as these luxuries bring us joy, it's not a bad thing to be deprived, especially when God deems it so. Just think of it like an extended Lent. It may be a sacrifice, but God made the ultimate sacrifice for us, it's the least we can do for Him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-995084920131564374.post-45308629744296081412012-03-05T06:40:46.256-06:002012-03-05T06:40:46.256-06:00Hi Dusky, thanks for commenting.

They really aren't horse people at all. They actually have 3 horses that run with the cows over at Herry Ford's house but I've only got to be up close with them once. It was torture not being able to mess with them. Two are close to 30 years old, but the other gelding is between 8 and 10, the perfect age. He's never really been messed with and he's GORGEOUS. I'd love it if they'd even let me fool with him, but I don't get the idea that they would be for it. Maybe in a couple years.....Mama Messhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09541998872594946053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-995084920131564374.post-26886131164647557242012-03-04T08:06:55.449-06:002012-03-04T08:06:55.449-06:00Thanks dear friend!

Surely there is room for one horse and lots of room to ride it. You have been used to having so many animals and to being so independent in how you care for them...like someone who owns their own business and then goes back to work for someone else. Everyone needs to have something of their own...but maybe especially you. Why not?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
