Tales from a Horseman's Daughter

Imagine,if you can, growing up being the daughter of a horseman and growing up always around a stable. The stable full of horses needing to be fed and watered everyday, groomed and exercised would put you to the test.
Then there's the mucking out, cleaning out of hooves when needed, and the myriad of other responsibilities that go with running a stable.
Pitching in, to say the least, is expected and willingly or unwillingly daughters have to help.
Most of us would agree the pleasures of working with horses far outweigh the inevitable pain that happens at times. Our stories are all different but a certain thread runs through them. I hope you, the reader, recognize it.
