Looking at her today, it occurred to me that Flower is going through something of a metamorphosis at the moment, from podgy little baby pony to gangly almost-yearling. Her legs are lengthening, so is her neck, and her bottom is doing its level best to reach for the sky!

Given that she's at an age now where she's not only inquisitive and affectionate, but actually thrives on having something to do each day, I'm always looking for new things to try with her, to make sure that she has the best possible foundation for when she's a grown-up girl.

Because of that, I was delighted when Ruby's Mum recently messaged me with the very generous offer of gifting me a number of books that she thought I'd find useful. This thoughtful HHOer not only sorted them all out for me and handed them over for free, but also hand delivered them herself, so both Flower and I would like to say a huge thank you, as well as letting HHO know what a lovely lady she is! :)

As you can see, Flower appreciates them very much, and has already been busily deciding which of them we should make a start on as tonight's bedtime story! :D

What a lovely HHOer RM is :)

You'd have to be blind not to see through the mud and hair what a class little horse your bogoff is.
 
Awww, what lovely pics and you are very welcome, just so sorry we couldn't wait any longer for you to arrive and had to leave them tucked away for you. Enjoy them, I hope they are really useful and I am so excited waiting to see Flower's progress. xx
 
She does look quite interested in them! You'll have great fun with her. It will be lovely to be the one to teach her all these new things.

Thank you! I haven't managed to capture it very well on camera yet, but she's actually starting to look like a quality little horse in the flesh now. There are lots of areas where the foal fluff is almost gone, and beneath the ridiculously thick mane, there's the prettiest, daintiest head. I often wonder how I got so lucky with her :)

Not at all - I'm just very sorry that we were delayed. I've already been making notes on what I've read so far, and having a think about what to introduce her to next :)

It really is the most rewarding thing. She's such a clever girl, and she absolutely thrives on human interaction, which makes her a pleasure to raise :)
 
Oh lovely!
Be prepared until she is three that she will look gangly ans uneven 😂 my sisters rising three year old (three next week) is just looking like a horse now 😁

Haha me too - I'm like a mud and horse hair magnet! What a lovely gift from RM - I'm sure you will have fun together.

Flower has the most gorgeous head - she's a stunner.
