Even though they are only a five-minute drive from my home, it has been quite a few years since I stepped foot on the beautiful grounds of Amazing Grace Equine Sanctuary
But today I just had to go see Sawyer, their new addition. Isn’t that the greatest name for this little one? And how can one not be lured by this cutie? He was definitely eating up all the attention and nibbling on many a finger and a few carrots too.
When I saw Erin, the founder of Amazing Grace, she smiled and said, “So it took a baby horse to get you here again.”
It was hard to get a good photo of Sawyer as he was quite busy showing off his spunky self moving around the pen, nursing from mama Blackberry and soaking up all the attention from admirers.
And then there is Frank, now a long time resident of the sanctuary who was happy to receive carrots from children eager to feed him. They’d giggle when Frank would nibble up the carrot from their hands with his soft lips.
It never fails to fill the heart with all good things warm, fuzzy and joyful being around the animals. I was glad to have spent some time at the sanctuary today…and who knows? That little rascal of a baby horse just may have me visiting again soon.
You can learn more about the sanctuary on Facebook and their website. Once a month they have visitors day and August 10th is their 10th annual fundraiser.
XO,
