Ella, the horse whisperer

The preamble: One of Ella's favorite things to do right now is play with her horse - actually, it's a unicorn. Ben picked out a purple unicorn as her present from him last Christmas - the unicorn has been named Shiny. She loves to run around the house on the unicorn, wearing her sheriff hat (from Grandma Joan & Grandpa Bill). She whinnies and squeals like a horse; it's very loud and shrill at times! Ben also has a horse (handmade by Grandma Joan!) and Ella carries it around the house too.

I walked into Ben's room last night to put some laundry away, and there, all tucked in snugly under the covers, was Ben's horse. Ella followed me in to his room, and I looked at her and said, "Did you tuck the horsey into bed?" "Yup! Ssshh, he's sleeping!"

Silly girl.
