I am a lucky Grammy, as my GD spends a lot of time here at Grammy's farm. Actually her favorite person is her Auntie Lauren though... and visa versa. Next grandchild comes in May. I am told it will be a boy. ;^)
Your Haffiefriend,

While she has her own pony, she likes our Haflinger Lucky the very best. Her Auntie Lauren (my 12 yo daughter) has given her rides on him too.
