4 Years With The Little Mare

4 years ago today, my family made one of the greatest decisions we’ve ever made.

It was the day we took our first step into the horse owner life, the life we couldn’t picture ourselves without.

November 14, 2018, was the day our precious little Sissy became ours.

When we saw her for the first time, she was skinny and had no mane. Her tail was short and thin, and her hair was long and bushy. She was not the most glamorous horse, but she had big, kind eyes and a calm personality, so calm, in fact, that the first time we brushed her she fell asleep.

When I rode her for the first time, I was just 10 years old. I was small and just needed a first horse that would take care of me. I needed a safe, sane, gentle horse.

Well, that’s exactly what Sissy was, and still is. She is still that little horse that will take care of you. She is the horse that we trust all of the little kids on when they want to go for a ride. She is the horse that taught me so much, and now she is teaching my little sister everything she taught me. She is the horse that took us through our first years in the show ring. She is the horse that will put up with all of the stupid stuff that you want to do with her, like dress her up for a costume contest or wear reindeer antlers on her head for Christmas cards. Sissy is the littlest horse with the biggest heart, but most importantly, above all…

She is our first horse. She is the first step we took into the horse owner life. We have her to thank for starting the best chapter of our lives.

She will always be our little horse.

Happy 4 years and happy 16th birthday, Sissy. Thank you for everything you do for our family and friends. You are such a blessing to our family.
