Yes, you are seeing this correctly .... Isabelle's Christmas dreams came true this morning as she looked out the window to see her Daddy standing out in the field holding her very own horse. "Buck Christmas Kronz" is the latest member of the Kronz family farm. He is a 13 year old roan paint quarter horse with many years of 4H experience working alongside children. He is 14 hands high and a gentle giant. Here's how it happened .....
We had sought out a friend 3 months ago to begin looking for the right beginner horse for our little horse lover. Last week, he found this horse and felt sure that it would be just the right fit for Isabelle. And so ..... after we opened our stockings and gifts this morning and everyone was enjoying their presents, Joe announced that he was going out to feed the animals. I stealthily kept watch from the upstairs window and when he had the horse positioned where we could see it from the door, I called down to the kids to "Come up here! Dad has one last gift he wants to show you!!" They came racing up and Isabelle stopped dead in her tracks looking out the door. Words cannot describe the sweetness of this precious moment!! She was in
utter disbelief and then the tears began to flow as she kept asking, "Is it for ME?? Is it to be MINE??!" I was crying, she was crying, Josiah was trying to get pictures in all the frenzy. It was precious.
I had her clothes hidden and ready for me to quickly help her into them (as at this point, she really couldn't even think straight!). She and I got outside as quick as possible and I snapped these pictures of her and her Daddy .... making his daughter's dream come true.
Isabelle had an apple ready to feed her new horse as she quietly spoke to it all the fond things she has been waiting to say if this moment should ever happen ....
A Christmas to remember!! Merry Christmas everyone! Much love from the happy, growing Kronz family

This picture, although blurred, has the tender look on Isabelle's face that communicates perfectly how she was feeling. It is absolutely thrilling to help make a child's dream come true.
