It’s been a busy time since my last post. I can’t believe that Christmas is here already. I hope you all had a good year at school and are now looking forward to summer holidays. For those of you who are lucky enough to have your own horses, I hope you manage to spend lots of time with them over the holidays and that your horses stay healthy and happy. Hopefully we will all be soon out and about again as the Equine Influenza crisis seems to be easing. If all is well I am hoping to take Cruise to Barastoc in February. He is entered in the performance pony classes.
As I write this I am sad to report that one of my foals is sick. Little Jaspar has picked up a bacterial infection and is taking his time over getting well. I hope in my next post I can report better news about him. He is a dear little colt who loves attention and he has a way of making everybody love him, so fingers crossed he is well again well very soon.
The other foal, Cadence, is growing rapidly and loves nothing more than a good old scratch on the rump and shoulders. She is losing her foal coat and a lovely golden Palomino colour is beginning to show through underneath.The rest of my equine ‘family’ are all doing well. Oh, and by the way, keep an eye out later in 2008 for the next two books in the Pony Patch series. Hoping that all of you have a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. Best Wishes, Bernadette Kelly.
