Recently, Mary Catherine's photo was in the Scoop Magazine when she attended a horse show with Sissy and Gaga in Lexington South Carolina. Her Aunt Jenny writes for the paper and takes photos at horse shows. In the magazine, the photo was from the shoulders up so you couldn't tell she actually already has on her tootsie roll pj's! She likes to go to the horse shows. After a lot of contemplation, Kevin and I sold her pony Prince Charming. He wasn't exactly what we wanted for her and we really didn't have anywhere to keep him that it wasn't going to cost us an arm and a leg. Thou she is a very good ridder and sits a horse very well, we felt like it was too expensive to have a horse that she didn't ride everyday. We have told her that when she gets older and wants to take lessons, we will lease a horse for her and she can take lessons. We are in the process of selling our house and farm in the country and moving into town. That plan just doesn't go with owning a horse.
On the way home from the horse show, there was a pretty Carolina moon. Celia was telling Mary Catherine to look at it and if she concentrated very hard she could see the whole moon. Celia said Mary Catherine was very quiet for a moment and then she asked, "Sissy, do you think you could teach me how to concentrate real hard?" Celia about fell out the car. Mary Catherine then proceeded to tell her about how when she was three (anytime she is telling a tale...it takes place when she was three) that her Daddy was holding her outside and the moon waved at her. Whew...we have a BIG imagination!
