The Warmth Of A Horse
When your day seems out of balance and so many things go wrong..
When people fight around you and the clock drags on so long..
When some folks act like children and fill you with remorse...
Go out into the pasture and wrap your arms around your horse
His gentle breath enfolds you
As he watches with those eyes
He may not have a PHD , but he is oh so wise!
His head rest on your shoulder, you hug him good and tight
He puts your world in balance and makes it seem alright.
Your tears will soon stop flowing, the tension will be eased
The nonsense has been lifted, you are quiet and at peace
So when you need some balance from the stresses of your day..
The therapy you really need is out there eating hay

If you know Sarah, you know she’s the queen of Christmas! She, Kurt and their daughters spend nearly two months in their wreath shop making gorgeous wreaths of all sizes and kissing balls every year. They generously provide for many local fundraisers. And every year they show up and deck the halls right here at Chipman Stables!

Happy 1st Day of Spring!
Remember a few years back when this guy went viral for his thoughts on this day?

I am a lesson horse.
I am a horse that isn’t as recognized as the top hunter jumpers, the best western pleasure horse, or the 1D barrel horse, I am a lesson horse. I am the backbone of the foundation to do all of those things. I am a lesson horse.

I am not loved by one person. I am loved by several people. I don’t have my person, I have my people. I am a lesson horse.

I will teach your child and yourself more than just to ride. I will bring your child out of their shell. I will teach your child about life. I will be yours and their shoulder to cry on. I am a lesson horse.

I will bring my family the joy of teaching kids. I will bring my families business growth. I am so loved by my family, even if they don’t express it everyday. My family allows others to show me love and enjoy me. I am a lesson horse.

At the end of your childs’ journey on a lesson horse, they will out grow me. They will find one that jumps higher, a horse that is show quality, a horse much faster than me. But, I will never outgrow being a lesson horse. I will be the one that loved your child and helped your child grow into the rider and person they are. I am a lesson horse.

At the end of my time as a lesson horse; I will be covered in grey hair. Each grey hair came from each hour I spent as a lesson horse. I will be in a field of green grass, I will be taken care of as I was when I was a lesson horse. I will watch your child from across the pasture love her new horse. But, I will love your child more than any horse can. I will be the backbone of the business, the family, and your child. Don’t forget about me, I am a lesson horse.

I am a lesson horse.
