I’ve been meaning to post this for a while but I’ve been busy with other things. I hurried out to take these photos last week before I had to ship this little boy to far off Norway. I thought he might want a keepsake of his best friend, the horse.

I never intended for horse and boy to meet. The horse was supposed to be a solo item, but my own children immediately saw that the boy doll would fit nicely on the horse’s little green saddle. And so he does!

The poor horse was sorry to see his friend go, so I thought if I made him a little bridle, it might be easier for someone else to ride him.

And what do you know, a more cautious young lady was willing to give it a try so long as she had something to hold on too.

Whatever the case, with a rider or without, this little horse is a keeper.
