“Daddy takes care of his ‘Babies’!”

Mar 13th “Daddy takes care of his ‘Babies’!”

Everybody has some kind of “chores” that just have to be done daily, – but when you have horses and other farm animals – you will always have some new born “BABIES” – and you know – when there are babies – they need your time and attention 24/7.

The above picture – Lee is taking care of “Mama Valentine” and her little new born baby “Rain-Bow” is so close to her MAMA – it is almost as if she is in the arms of her MAMA – gently snuggling under and around MAMA’s legs! It sure is a miracle that horses know just what to do on their own – the whole deal of being born and then the baby knows just where to get milk and that to keep close to MAMA – is the best and safer of places to be for all the protection she will need – until MAMA teaches her baby the ropes of LIFE – what to do and when and where!

Lee has always had horses – his first was when Lee was nine or ten years old – it was a pony which was due to have a foul and then later a “Buckskin” – that was ready to go and the rider sure better be ready for a “ride” – that you will not forget soon, afterwards? When you have your own horse and that goes for any other animals – Lee had to feed his horse and his brother,Al – had to feed his horse and then the dogs and cats and then for awhile we even had rabbits and all these animals had to be taken care of – before going to school.

So, when you have all these animals – the chores continue when you get home from school – the best part of cleaning – is the extra work on the stalls and preparing for the evening and also, the tack needs care – especially after you ride with your friends. And – there is nothing like completing the day with your music lessons and practice and your homework for school – must be done . Sure can not have a horse – if you can not keep up with school work and studies – “Lot of Learning and always the care of the LOVE of your LIFE – – your favorite animal!”
