Status: Gabby and Lilly


March 31 
*Her restlessness and manic galloping have me worried, I know she feels something's off, but to what extent who knows. Standing at her gates I watch her with a concerned eye, my Lilly, like one of my children, is very sensitive and needs me when her world isn't right. Undoing the latch slowly, and easing my way in, trying not to startle her, or make her even more agitated as I walk over to the hay bale and sit. Its a sight to see when she's like this, her muscles twitching and shaking as she jumps tells me to keep still. When she notices me she huffs and slows. <Hi baby, I'm just watching you, its ok> I whisper. Sometimes I think she has a breedmate ability, one that can sense heightened emotions..Sitting straight up when she makes her way over to me, her nose pushing into my lap as she scrapes at the ground. <I know baby, I know, all will be ok..I promise you> Pulling an apple from my bag I feed it to her, talking lightly to calm her wild side <Would you like to go for a run tonight, girl? I think you might need it to waste some of these nerves..>Pulling out her cell she pulls her mates name up in messenger and texts <Baby, a favor please? Can you take our Lilly out for a run tonight or sometime soon. She is a bit pent up and needs a good hard run.> Ending the text she stands and begins to rub her mare down*
