Dream big..when I grow up..I want to be just like you.

I love our little bouncing horse
she was always a big dreamer.

Years ago she was the trusted and faithful steed
for all three of our children. She safely carried them across deserts,through swamps,up mountains,and
rescuing damsels in distress and boldly carrying her rider to victory after victory.

With reverence and respect I   sadly put her out to pasture, carefully tucking her
up in the attic rafters for safe keeping.

As our children grew,they each had a "real"horse of their own. We still have two of them with us here at
farmfunnies.  Midnight and Ginger.  Hummer,Tina,April and Sheba are now grazing on heavenly grass in gold and silver meadows .  Ruby and emerald boulders beset the edges of their meadow.
 
Our children,while not died in the wool horse lover/fanatics as their mom (me)
 became more skillful riders than myself ,their hopeless horse loving mom.
I envied them.

With grandchildren now, I have become a bouncing horse rescuer, we now have four trusty steeds,
each waiting for their own dteam to come to fruition
Our oldtimer  gal..little horse,wanted to go out in the world and meet her models,
she silently held onto her dreams for years..She  dreamed so long
of running through the fields and rolling in the snow with the other family horses.

One day "it" happened..Little horse made it...she  woke up  one day to find herself  nose to nose
with the big guys and gals...
she discovered ....
Nothing is impossible...you just  need to keep dreaming,
to never give up and  to always keep hope alive in your heart..

Little horse also discovered  it helps if you accept a little help sometimes
even if it is from  farmfunnies "granny" :-)

Little horse also discovered those big guys and gals just might be terrified of you.
Little horse was  so surprized when Czar,Malahara and Midnight snorted and ran from her.

Little horse calmly held her ground,waiting,listening validating her new friends as she felt empowered
with her  own new found strengths.

Do you think your dreams are impossible? 
Rember Little horse, never be too shy or embarrassed to seek a little help .
Sometimes  sharing your dreams with somone on the outside,(or standing under you in the rafters) will allow you to clarify what really matters to you..

Go ahead and dream big..nothing is impossible :-)
