Summer is sure flying by! Although the weather seems to be either horrendously hot or pouring rain, we are so thankful to be showing! Our show season is in full swing as I write this article. It’s been so wonderful to see our horse show friends and meet new friends this season!

Even though summer is racing by, we still have some shows for you to enjoy! The COSCA Summer Sizzler is Aug. 21-22 and the COSCA Open Show is Sept. 11. You can find the showbills for these shows on our website. You can also find the Summer Sizzler showbill in the July issue of the Corral, and the Open Show showbill in this issue. Check out our website for shows that are approved for COSCA year end points as well. This year also marks our 70th Championship Show! We are so excited to share this milestone show with our exhibitors! In addition to our class lineup of a variety of breed classes, youth, adult and open classes, we’ll have our year awards presentations and some fun classes! It’s a great way to cap off show season. You can find the showbill on our website!

See you at the shows!

Babies in the Barn (continued)

to Him that He might put His hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.” And He laid His hands on them and departed from there.” In Matthew Chapter 18, one of the disciples asked Jesus who was the greatest in the kingdom of heaven, Jesus’ response was in verses 2 through 5 “Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me.”

We are commanded by the LORD in Deuteronomy 6:7 to teach His commandments as follows, “You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.” The last scripture I will list here could also apply to how we raise and train our young horses. In Proverbs 22:6 we read “Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.”

We are excited at the blessing of being a part of this young horse’s life and our future granddaughter’s life as well. Who knows, maybe there will be another baby in the barn soon. My granddaughter is eventually going to need her own horse, won’t she? Daddy can buy her a little motorcycle, but Grandma and I just happen to know where there might be a little blue roan baby for sale! God Bless you all!
