I guess I’m falling for Chloe, it took us a bit, but she is onto me, and I am loving her. She gives me a kiss, she usually gets a cookie. I wash her down with a hose every afternoon, and she loves it, comes running up to the gate to welcome me. She puts her head on my shoulder once in awhile, and we have a deepening understanding.

I wasn’t sure about getting a pony, but it was a great decision, for Maria, for the farm, for me. Chloe is the kind of woman I love, strong, proud, independent and loving. I love her soft nose.
