Good morning Po-tato Family!

Today is National Potato 🥔 Day and I cannot let the day pass without honoring our favorite Po-tato Pony!

Remember what Po taught us: be kind but spicy, live for the day, embrace the chaos and enjoy the little things in this life.

We all love and miss you Po-tato!

Yours in love ❤️ and light ✨️,

Good morning Po-tato Family,

3 years ago we decided to celebrate 🥳 Po-tato by hosting his birthday 🎂 on National Watermelon 🍉 Day, because that was his all time favorite treat. When he had first arrived and was so withdrawn and had no appetite, it was watermelon he couldn't resist!

I think this is one of my favorite days, ever. Coming together to go all out in decorating and celebrating his life is a way I doubt he had ever experienced before, was such an amazing moment. Seeing put community come out just to celebrate 🥳 with him was a highlight. Po even had a band to sing to him! He deserved ever bit of that party.

I wish we had more birthdays with him 😔. We still had so much to celebrate. But I absolutely do not regret deciding to throw over the top, decoration filled, custom cookie and watermelon treat parties for him while we could. He gave us reason to celebrate every little accomplishment and every single day. We didn't know how long we would have with Po, and every day was a bonus. I'm glad we could pack his last years with as much adventure, love and celebration as possible ❤️.

Thanks for being a part of his journey 💜.

Yours in love ❤️ and light ✨️,
Tara

Hello Po-tato family,

Today is National Watermelon 🍉 Day. It's the day we chose to celebrate Po's birthday each of the past few years because of his deep love of the sweet summer treat. Back when Po first arrived and would just not eat, he was always tempted by watermelon. It's also an August date and that made it easier to host a big event at the farm and really throw a party for our favorite pony. He loved a good party, especially when it involved delicious 😋 treats!

Looking back, I never really gave the animals watermelon. I'm not a huge fan of it and it's not the easiest treat to feed as it can be quite messy. It didn't make it's way into the barn until Po. It won't ever leave the barn now, because of Po. It's the lasting gift he gave all of the animals and a way we will always remember his time with us. It's one of the indelible marks he has left on our organization. ❤️

I hope the watermelon at the rainbow bridge is just perfect 🥰 and oh so plentiful! Happy birthday 🎂 in heaven 💛 sweet Po. We miss you!

Join with me today and let's celebrate his life, and the birthday we chose for him, by grabbing a slice of watermelon to eat. Do it for Po 🫶.

Yours in love ❤️ and light ✨️
Tara

Good morning Po-tato Family,

Po always had such wise words and deep insights. This was his post from several years ago and I think it's still a relevant set of words for us all. He noticed things and slowed me down so I'd notice them too. He took joy in small moments that seemed irrelevant to most, but made him so happy.

From the shavings on his back, meaning he felt comfortable enough to sleep in his deeply bedded stall, to his investigation of this leaf, Po viewed his world with wonder I wouldn't think possible after the condition he arrived in. But he opened himself up to us caring for him and he found joy in the world once more and I'm so thankful we could share it with him.

Yours in love ❤️ and light ✨️,
Tara

Good morning friends!

I'm just here to remind you to take some time to notice the beauty and magic around you! Yesterday, I found this beautiful yellow leaf and I had to check it out. It's not fall, so seeing this felt unique! I sniffed it and tasted it and just enjoyed noticing it.

Don't get so caught up in the big things that you miss the simple details in life ❤️.

Love, Po
