True story.
- One day my younger sister brought over her three older children for me to watch. Their ages being seven, five, and four. Girl, boy, girl, respectively. They began to get a little rowdy so I decided to ride them around on my horse for a bit. (He?s a jet black, one-quarter morgan, three-quarters quarterhorse, and a big teddy bear.) Well, I had all three of them on him bareback having fun, but they started to get a little scared. So I took them down.
- The littlest one asked me ?What is his name??
- ?Ebony,? I said ?but sometimes we call him ?Bones.?? Just at that moment, our white and cream pinto of the same breed dropped to the ground and began rolling vigorously in the dirt. When she got up, she was covered in dirt and nearly brown.
- ?Oh! Oh!? the little one said, in that innocent excited little girl kind of voice, ?Her name...her name is Britny Spears, cos she?s a dirty horse!? 8o
-I immediately burst into laughter, and laughed until my sides hurt and tears formed in my eyes. To this day, I don?t know where she might have gotten that idea.
