So here's to all animals (including humans) who have found a good home. And let's hope those who haven't will soon.Ruby Isabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05338355478094548333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871547974104565876.post-67253410242209162142008-12-29T06:11:00.000-08:002008-12-29T06:11:00.000-08:00How cute!

I can only imagine the look on my face as I read but I felt like I was seeing it through the eyes of a child on a frosty winters night.<BR/><BR/>Best wishes to all at Watermark for many more good fortunes for the new year. <BR/><BR/>Bless you for all you have done for Argus. You have given him so much more than freedom. In his dreams you have given him wings; and in his heart he knows how to use them.SOSHorseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04060612555090353297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871547974104565876.post-13010347697790793972008-12-25T16:06:00.000-08:002008-12-25T16:06:00.000-08:00Twas the night of Christmas, and all through the f...Twas the night of Christmas, and all through the farm<BR/>The horses were eating, all safe and warm.<BR/><BR/>Santa stood smiling at Argus with such measure.<BR/>Knowing no gift he'd leave<BR/>could ever give as much pleasure<BR/><BR/>As Katie has given<BR/>without reserve<BR/>to him and his barn mates<BR/>they surely deserve.<BR/><BR/>So Santa left knowing,<BR/>there will always be hay<BR/>for Argus to eat, each and every day.<BR/><BR/><BR/>I wish for Katie's love to spread around to world.

Like the earlier writer, I, too, was taught that the beasts speak in the wee hours. My mother told me so, and she never lied. She also told me of the wonder of a stable, on Christmas Eve, full of the sweet smells of grain and horses, and the soft, peaceful whuffles and murmurs they make, and the love all around.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, and your remarkable family, for doing what you do so very well, and thank you for sharing it with all of us. You tend, dear Katie, not only to the horses in your ward, but to all of us whose souls bleed from time to time at the difficulties of the world.<BR/><BR/>With love to you, to Argus, to all your beasties, and every wish for a joyous day tomorrow, and a season full of love, laughter, good things to nibble and hugs everywhere you turn.<BR/><BR/>Jean in Seaside, Ca.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871547974104565876.post-44243796432366173142008-12-24T21:12:00.000-08:002008-12-24T21:12:00.000-08:00Katie:Shedding tears of joy tonight....again....fo...Katie:<BR/><BR/>Shedding tears of joy tonight....again....for Argus and your other lucky animals!

Told, as only you can Katie! <BR/>Merry Christmas to all @ Watermark Farm, a Blessed New Year!<BR/><BR/>Don’t forget to CREEP out to the barn tonight just after midnight and see if you can hear anything! The horses are supposed to be able to speak to one another from midnight until dawn on Christmas Eve. Celtic lore I believe.
