Happy 26th to Rain!
I do love to tell people, this horse has been with me through three different last names. 🤦🏼♀️ all of my adult chapters, laughs, tears, the best and worst days. She was the first horse I hopped up on after an almost 20 year hiatus. When I was pregnant with Emily I didn’t ride but I’d go visit her and bring treats of course. If you knew and loved Rain in her younger years, you’d love her even more now. She is simply the best and can never be replaced. And at 26 she’s still going! She was so fun to ride in her younger years. The steadiest, most trustworthy soul you could meet. She’d take me over any jump in front of us. She spent a summer doing cross country and loved it. We stayed a week at fieldstone about 5 years ago and horse showed/ it was a moment I will never forget. These days we do a lot of flat work and every now and again will pop over a cross rail. She loves her people. She still puts around once or twice a week for a lesson with her bestie Deb. She will go on the road with me, a trail ride to silverstone, she loves to fly around with Emily on her back. She loves her horse friends, I’m not sure she would ever be able to live without Molly by her side. 😂
I would do anything for this horse. But the truth is, she’s given me more than I could ever give back.
A very happy birthday.
Love you Rainy, you deserve it all!
