Someday???

I had a horse growing up and so did BP's Dad, actually he had a few. So it is one of our dreams to have a horse again someday. We have a good friend who knows this dream of ours and she called last week to tell us about a sweet Belgian mare who was in need of a good home. The name of the mare is Janet and her current owner described her as "good as gold." Our friend said she had room on her farm for us to board Janet if we decided we could not live without her. We went to see Janet and she was beautiful and very sweet. I loved her right away (maybe it had something to do with the matching bellies we both had), but we decided that she was a little too "green" for us. In horse terms, green means she was not well trained and probably a little older than we would like. We also know that right now is not the perfect time to make our dream come true, with baby #2 on the way. We really should wait a couple of years. The Barefoot Princess is already in awe of horses and we would like to encourage this fascination. Someone very wise once told me, "Every little girl should have a horse because it keeps them innocent longer." Someday The Barefoot Family will find their horse, until then our good friend is still scouting for the perfect fit!!!
