After 25 years, Norma finally had her horse. All of her life Norma had loved and cared for us horses. One day her uncle promised her a horse of her own. He decided he would give me to her, even though Norma had her heart set on a pretty auburn horse with a snow white mane and tail. Perhaps it was fate that caused him to offer her a horse she thought she didn’t want. I turned out to be the best horse for her. Although I was more of a man’s horse, a friendship grew and Norma fell in love with what I like to call my indomitable nature. She calls it stubbornness. It seems we have a lot in common.
In spite of many health problems and setbacks, Norma’s courage and strong will remain intact, even though her body won’t allow her to do the things she used to do.
She and I have been fortunate to have Donald in our lives. He has taken it upon himself to love and care for us both.
I wanted to tell him how much I love him too with this card.
Happy Father’s Day Donald from Paint!!!
