Anyone who has known H for any amount of time knows that she LOVES horses. She has loved them forever.
When she was two we were at a family reunion in Pinedale at my Aunt and Uncle's ranch. There was a horse in a corral and H was completely enamored with it. One day, N and I were in the house playing cards with my family and someone came running in yelling, "H is in the corral with the horse!" We all jumped up and ran out. I guess she climbed over the bars of the corral to get in. I don't think she was in any real danger. I'm fairly certain the horse was a nice old horse. But still. After that we had to make sure someone knew where she was at all times.
She has received something horse related for every birthday and every Christmas ever since that reunion.
This year was no different. My mom and dad got her a toy horse. Not just any toy horse, though. This thing is pretty big and she loves it. She named it Rain (after the girl horse in her favorite movie: Spirit). She loves it so much she had to bring it to the table when she ate breakfast and when I reminded her that we don't bring toys to the table she said, "That's okay. I'm not really hungry" and left the table.
