Wendy

There are horses in your life you know are there for a reason and my mare I'm Expressin Myself is such a mare. I feel it was fate that brought the mare into my life and she has given me the best babies I have ever owned. I had to bred her to a few different stallions before I hit the jack pot with my stallion Expressive N Smart (Cody) sired by Seriors Lil Brudder. I did not show him due to an injury to his hock when he was two but I knew what I had and I keep him for myself. I started taking him to my Wed. night clinics so he could get out, he loves to go and gets mad when I leave him behind. I ride him one day a week, I mostly sit on him when I teach others and somehow he has advanced in his training anyways. He has try and is definitely the Man in my life, honest and true, he is always happy to see me.

I bred her to Seven From Heaven the last time and she gave me Wendy. Wendy is everything I dreamed of, she is smart with a great sense of humor and playful. She was born on a cold windy day, out here the wind blows like you wouldn't believe and little Wendy did her best to stay on her feet. I brought them into the barn out of the wind. She was so tired but wasn't sure how to lay down again. I sat on the ground and watch her trying to sleep standing, she was only a few hours old. She stumble over to me and with me sitting on the ground she lay down right next to me, I sat still as not to scare her. After a few minutes I reached out and pet her on the neck, she didn't mind and lay her head in my lap. In all the years I have had horses this has never happened before naturally. I sat there with this little filly sleeping with her head on my lap and thought about all my child hood fantasies and how far away from those ideal dreams I had come. My reality was harsh and training horses was hard work, a job I took very seriously. I had become a hard ass trying to compete with the big boys and had lost my friendship with horses. There I sat with this new born filly I had dreamed of owning my hole adult life sleeping in my lap and I was moved to tears.

A few year back I had decided to take a chance and ship semen. My friends had done it and it could get really costly with vet bill so I was reluctant. I had wanted a Play Gun forever but he didn't ship so I found Seven from Heaven and decided to breed to him instead, there again there was just something about him. The Stallion had surgery that year and so I had to wait a hole another years to breed to him. They offered another Stallion instead but I decided to wait. I had to borrow the money for the vet and shipping when the next year finally rolled around but I managed to get it done and work it off. She was a strange color, chestnut with darker legs like a bay but definitely chestnut, she had a very pretty little head. She loved to run and play and you could tell right away that she had all the right moves. She is smart and a very curious filly, throughout the years she has been a definite pain in my back side, the hot wire doesn't bother her, It's just a game to her and she always gets out and into trouble. She is gray like her sire but with strange light spots all over her. She is a horse of a different color but to me pretty is as pretty does.

She is two years old now and I'm starting her under saddle. I wanted horses like this when I was younger.. lol I wanted a horse to compete at the Snaffle Bit and now I have to muster up the courage and get it done;0)
