My best friend bought her first horse while we were in university (I'm still horseless many years later) and she was often bitter about the kids whose parents bought them nice horses for them to swan around on at shows. We did notice that these kids never really seemed to appreciate what they had, though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-6103480882895681502007-05-23T19:26:00.000-07:002007-05-23T19:26:00.000-07:00Great post!

LOL Probably...I'm sure your husband was not amused. LOL Probably more like shaking in his boots thinking how far you could go..........if you let yourself.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately, for me, my husband understands how horses feed my soul, so he's pretty supportive. The only time he falters is when he's around his family and they start telling him how crazy this all is. Crazy to them maybe, to me, they're the crazy ones because they haven't a clue.Rising Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239592070775412669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-31119867848387143382007-05-10T18:03:00.000-07:002007-05-10T18:03:00.000-07:00Kelly, that is true, my parents gave me the drive ...Kelly, that is true, my parents gave me the drive as well and that's the best gift to give your children.Calliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704537697611988375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-31430036624061366202007-05-10T18:01:00.000-07:002007-05-10T18:01:00.000-07:00Mikael, Thanks for those awesome comments.

I used to cut out classified ads of free horses and staple it to my Christmas list, find houses for rent with barns the works. One of four raised by a single mother I'm sure it was no fun trying to explain why we couldn't afford a "free" horse. I guess it just like everything else in life... Those who don't have appreciate it all the more. Now I'm grown and have 5 horses of my own and horses are my job. My mom couldn't give me a horse but she did give me drive, and the belief that you can have anything in life that you set your mind too...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8926013554523279624.post-63354736655165569662007-05-09T03:43:00.000-07:002007-05-09T03:43:00.000-07:00hhhhmmmmmppppAre all girls with horses the same an...hhhhmmmmmpppp<BR/>Are all girls with horses the same and are husbands the last to know<BR/><BR/>We agreed we had only pasture for 2 horses and could only afford 2 horses <BR/><BR/>I reckon I better be very dilligent on any conversations with horses as I am to soft by half<BR/><BR/>I agreed to 1 goat and ended up with 3 , I said no more animals and ended up with blind kitten<BR/><BR/>And now my darling wife knows I read all and will on my guardstevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01441825212351898692noreply@blogger.com
