Cowboy in Disguise??!!



Who would have guessed it?? Our son is a "closet cowboy"! Yes, I am talking about Grant...The one who hates to get dirty and lives for anti-bacterial. He jumped into 'country life' with both feet and loved every minute of it! Grant did "chores" every day - feeding the horses and sweeping up the barn - and took it very seriously. He was continually reminding me to avoid the 'G.H.T.'s' (Ginormous Horse Turds) - like I could miss it :) He even met Daniel, a 'barefoot friend' from 'up the road', who taught him to lasso the dogs as they tried valiantly to escape, and identify animal droppings (something everyone should know, apparently). I became a little nervous when he started telling Grant about his hunting weapons, but besides that it was wonderful seeing Grant come out of his comfort zone - even if I did have to hear more about manure than I ever cared to know!!
