Equine time.




Inevitable upon her course
was Paige's appointment with a horse.
She's dreamed and hoped and pleaded and begged me
To ride a horse, to meet her destiny.
Just ONE for the backyard, initially in jest.
Then she matured into more reasonable requests.
Her birthday--the perfect day to shower
this girl with surprise of Equine heaven--for an hour.
One brown horse fulfilled her dream
Trotting and grooming, Miss Paige felt like a queen.
{or atleast the queen's stablegirl}
Promises for more have been bestowed,
for who am I to deny her the road...
...to her destiny.

What a fun day!
I love the 'hood/motherhood post. I always love those reminders about how to live in the moment and not just live for the 'child in bed for the night' moments.
