A day with horses

Miriam is our animal lover.

She doesn’t just love looking at them, or learning about them like Luke did at her age, but she is a hugging, squeezing, doesn’t mind if they lick her face kind of animal lover.

 This concept is completely foreign to me, since neither I nor the boys have ever been comfortable holding or getting too close to animals of any kind.  Petting is about the closest we get.

A couple in our church graciously let us spend the day with their horses, and even let everyone take a little ride!  It’s so nice to live near so many open spaces and farms!

The owner of this horse said that she “couldn’t take her eyes off Miriam”.  It was love at first sight for both of them!

Andrew has always been our little climber

Every since Miriam was a baby, she has always loved dogs too.  I never would have imagined I’d be open to getting a dog, but the way her face lights up when she is around them has had me thinking how special it would be for her.

What a neat and memorable day this was!
