Here is the next rough draft on the top part of the Sonny Memoir~
My name is Lauren. I am a Horse Crazy 12 year old Christian girl. I have shoulder length brown almost black hair, lots of freckles, green, blue, and brown eyes, and am 5 and a half feet tall. I became interested in horses at around 2 or 3 years old. I began taking lessons at age 4. I was obsessed w/ horses and showed it by buying hand painted high end toy horses called Breyers all the time and had TONS of horse posters on my walls. I rode 1-2 times a week and worked at the barn cleaning the horse urine and poop out of stalls, this is called mucking out a stall, whenever I could when I hit about 7 years old. I had been asking my parents for a horse since before I can remember. My parents said I could get a horse when I was ten because they thought I would grow out of it! But I didn't and when my tenth B-Day was "looming" near I started pestering my parents more than ever. Getting a horse meant a lot to me, and my wish was finally fulfilled on a cold January afternoon.
As my parents, my sisters, and I were driving home from church on a Sunday afternoon I noticed something strange. We were turning into the neighborhood that the barn is at. I asked my parents why we were here and they replied, "We just need to drop a check off to Jamie". Well when we turned into the barn I noticed that there was a bay horse who hadn’t been there before so I asked my trainer, Jamie if she got a new horse and she smiled and said "No Lauren that is your new horse Sonny". I ran over to he was standing.
As I wrapped my arms around his neck and breathed in the scent of horses and felt his baby fuzz against my cheek I had this bubbly feeling steal over me. When I finally let go of him my face was beaming as I thanked my parents over and over again for giving him to me. I then looked back at him and saw that he was beautiful rich brown in color with black mane, tail, muzzle, lower legs, and around the outside of his ears, a snip of white on his nose, a white sock on his right back leg, and a white teardrop on his forehead. I then wrapped my arms around his neck again and told him "I love you Sonny". Then he snorted at me as if he was saying I love you to Lauren. Finally a horse of my own.
I will not give you the whole thing until I am completely finished:)!
