Presenting…Friday…

I couldn’t resist sharing with you this adorable photo of Friday, a young 1/2 quarter-horse, 1/2 paint colt. There are several good things about being back in Texas for a little while, and one of them is spending a little time with good friends and enjoying the things that are important to them.

Friday belongs to my dear friend and pastor, Brandon, and was photographed by his son, Josh. I think Josh captured a lovely moment in a youngster’s life.
