Christina,
Is it that obvious. Yes, Mia is my favorite. But, I think it has to do with the fact that I have been able to comfortably handle her since 2 weeks after getting the 3 home. The other 2 I couldn't even get into their pens-I fed them from outside the fences. They had both removed their halters within the 1st week of bringing them home. They both had definite issues about people and their space. It wasn't until I took them to Able Garcia's stable on 7/12 that I had my turning point with both of them. So I have only been working with Traveller & Halona for a month now. That being said, Traveller is tugging pretty hard on my heart strings now. He is super sweet-loves people NOW. So what I'm beginning to see now is that the more I work with the other two, the harder September 20th is going to be for me. My parents have already said that I can bring 1 horse home and that the decision as to who it will be is up to me. I can even pick a different horse there if I want. I appreciate the fact that they are leaving the decision up to me, but at my age it will most definitely be the hardest decision that I will have made in my life. I have devoted all of my summer to these 3 and have learned so much in the process. This is definitely an experience that I will remember for the rest of my life and I will be able to look back on and say I made a difference-as have all of you. So keep that in mind on your bad days(after all we all have them) we are all making a difference one horse at a time.
