It's Somebody's Birthday

And this is not a date-of-adoption "birthday," or a best-guess "birthday"; it's the real thing.

We know this because, thanks to members of the community who helped us buy out the previous . . . erm . . . "owner" completely last year, we have his papers. Who knew that rescuing a dying horse would eventually make us the owners of a purebred registered quarter horse?

But the papers aren't important. What is important is that today, on his 13th birthday, this horse is safe. He's healthy. He's happy. He has a new name. No more "Jack," and no more "JETSPAINTEDWARCHEIF" (yes, lack of spaces, misspelling, and all) that appears on his papers.

He's Miskwaki, Red Earth. And he's my baby.
