Your post has inspired me! My floristry and writing business has been happily bubbling along the last 5 years, however the last of my 2 children is flying the coup and my husband and I will be empty nesters. Now it’s my time to shine to build my passion career I’ve not previously had time for. 2 months ago I discovered my word for the year, movement which aligns perfectly with the year of the horse. So this is it, my little business is blossoming this year and already I’m

off to a good start! Thank you for the beautiful inspo!!

Such a big transition. I love that you are putting that energy into things that make you so excited. Many parents have such a hard time when their kids leave, but when you look at it like a new beginning for yourself and them, it can flip that script and the possibilities are endless!

So beautiful! Thank you from a Fire Horse in Boise, Idaho. Will you be offering the other prints in this post or just the first one? I would buy several of the others for myself and some of my fellow Fire Horse friends (1966 babies!).

You know, I made them to share the info, but serveral people have asked to buy them. I can list them as prints as well. Let me know which ones you would love, and I can be sure to include them. Thanks!

I would buy the whole set if you made them available! But if you're only making a select few, I would like to buy three copies of #3 and three copies of #9.

I recently shared a conversation with a sanctuary that serves blind and senior horses and it brought me to tears. If you love stories of second chances, you’d appreciate it. <3
