what a beautiful mare! You worked heard with her and deserve her! What a nice thing her former owner did by letting you have her. Its so hard to give up one you love so much!
I wish you and Belle the best. You two are the perfect pair and will have many great times together. It was one of the hardest things I have done (Belle is so special to me) yet one of the easiest (you and Belle are just perfect and happy together). Enjoy her, she is a blast.
