Two Years with Willow

Ah, where do I even start?
I am so incredibly blessed to be able to say that this horse has been a part of my life for two years now. He was the best birthday gift I could have ever given to myself.

This year had its ups and downs, but far more highs than lows. We competed in shows, went XC schooling, started riding bareback, and even managed to be able to canter bareback in a halter. We've gotten closer as partners, spending many days running through fields together and playing like honest friends. He was there for me on my difficult days, and even taught me a lesson or two about how to be better. I made my fair share of mistakes but experienced so many good things this year and learned so much through his honesty and forgiveness.

One of the biggest heartbreaks of my life was leaving him in August to go to university. I have missed him more than I've ever missed anything else. But next year he'll literally be living in my backyard and I will see him every single day. It's been incredibly difficult to distance myself from him so that I'm not constantly longing for what I can't have right now. But all that matters is that he's being loved, and he most certainly is.

Our journey won't pick back up until summer this year, but I'm unbelievably excited to be with him again for hopefully the rest of his life. I have so much I want to do and so many things I want to change. I owe this horse my life and my heart. He is the most gentle and honest creature I have ever known. It is an absolute privilege to be loved by him.

Thank you Willow. I love you so much.
Happy two years my love.
