Misty, you were smart, funny, stubborn as I get out, and sassy. Boy, were you sassy. You were loved and cared for. You were trustworthy, reliable, bomb proof as they come. You were the one I picked when I wanted a nice easy ride. Where I could pile me and my kids on and you would take care of all of us. I have so many memories of you. Way too many to share, but some when I was just so in awe of how amazing you were. How you always had my back. And some memories where I wanted to kill you my self. π¬ when I would spend 45mins plus chasing you around and cussing you out for not coming and running away... I would run that whole pasture a hundred times over if it meant I got to go on one more ride with you... Just to pet your nose and feel your hot breathe again. β€οΈ You were with me for 24 years. You knew my secrets and fears. Hopes and dreams. You have my heart, no matter where you are. I only hope you knew how much I love you. How much your whole family loves you. Your herd will miss their queen, because that is what you are a mother freakin queen. I could go on and on about you... right now I will just hold you close to my heart. π
One of my 1st memories of horses is when I was with Misty as a baby. My dad was on her mom (Red) and leading Misty. I don't remember too much of the ride but I remember being on her when she didn't want to cross a little ditch. Then, my dad telling me it was OK and to hold on she would get it. Sure enough she did. One of the first times I rode alone on a trail ride. I was so proud of myself and Misty. She helped build my confidence in riding and life. You will be missed. Nothing can replace you and the love I have for you. Rest in peace sweet girl you earned it. β€οΈ Tango take care of our girl. Take her running to the sunset for me. π
