Happy 14th Birthday to my funny little mare. There’s nothing quite like getting older with a horse that has seen you through the good times and the bad. While most of Team DF is off at Twin Rivers for a Combined Test and some last cross country schools before Rebecca Farm, I’ll be spending the morning sitting in the grass at the barn. Jing and I will have our usual mostly silent discussions about the number of cookies that remain in my pockets and then likely go for a trail ride before the sun becomes unbearable. Life has it’s ups and downs, but it’s nice to stop and celebrate once in a while – even if it’s quietly.
