Praise for the Horsey Mom
Here's to all the moms who are horse crazy or have horse crazy kids!
There are three kinds of horsey moms. Which one are you?
The kind who says, "No, I don't have any kids, but I have a horse, which is pretty much the same thing".
The kind who says, "Horses scare the daylights out of me, but my kid is absolutely horse crazy, so excuse me while I hitch up the horse trailer again."
The kind who says, "I am so glad my kid was born with the horsey gene--just like me!"
