True Love

I read Beyond the Homestretch this week. It is a great story. It makes me want to go out and buy Rumba, the adorable bay Thoroughbred from Retama. He is a hottie, draws attention. The thing is, I have a beautiful TB right here already. Bec is an Appendix but is extremely thoroughbred-y. I am in love with her. There is no room for anyone else.

Becca is the most affectionate, kind horse I've ever known. She loves on you in her way and lets you love on her in the human way (with hugs). But, I always end up a little bit wet. She likes to make out. Arms work fine but she'd rather suck on your neck or hair. And when she's done she will groom you ever so gently with her teeth. It feels great.

This is where you call me ignorant and crazy. If you knew her, you'd understand. She loves everyone. She would never intentionally hurt you. And she is so gentle. Would I let Diesel do that? Heck, no. He is not even allowed to put his mouth near my body; not even his muzzle. He is a different beast.

Becca is most beautiful on the inside. She has a face that is refined and feminine. She is a perfect bay. And she is kind to a fault. Poor girl gets run out into the rain on a regular basis. Herd dynamics are tough. But not her. I love her. My life is blessed.
