She is definitely a natural horsewoman, and Connor adores her, although it is probably because of how often she gives him the applesauce cup out of her lunchbox, haha.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04292565760924146966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-88422520819128689482017-03-31T09:14:25.164-04:002017-03-31T09:14:25.164-04:00When I was 14-ish, I found my "barn mom"...When I was 14-ish, I found my "barn mom" while we were boarding at the same barn. Ultimately I left that barn and we had horses at different places before we again boarded at the same place for a couple more years. I have rally fond memories of our evening rides chatting about all things life. I then sold my horse shortly after I went to college, but all these years later and she is still a wonderful friend. We text frequently and I go visit her and her horses when I'm in town. My point is, good friendships last a lifetime, physical distance is a ultimately a very minor thing:)Marehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127842562111344534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-34346093316858362292017-03-31T00:16:54.572-04:002017-03-31T00:16:54.572-04:00Awww, so sad for both of you.

She loves them and they love her without any drama. Perhaps that is why you relate to her so well, and why you will miss each other so much. I'm sure that is why Connor adores her too. She is indeed, really special. <br /><br /><br />Castleberry Welsh Cobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15078358274456740669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8846330497859393721.post-38313180017102442112017-03-30T18:30:30.375-04:002017-03-30T18:30:30.375-04:00Leaving people is always harder then that place.
