Paloma ♥

My beautiful Paloma... she was my first horse and will always be so special to me. It feels so good to have her so close again... and as we waited, I realized that Paloma will be helping to raise little Mirabella. She will be her new horse mommy! So here she is, waiting for the little princess to arrive. We have a plan to keep them close but separate and to take things very slow (and safe). Paloma is a sweet mare and pretty passive too... I think this will work out nicely. ♥ So I now need to decide... do I start keep writing here on Willow's blog? Or should I start a new blog for Princess Mirabella?

  1. Paloma is beautiful! What a great horse mommy she will be <3 What will make you happier, Shana, to continue writing on Willow's blog or start a new Princess Mirabella blog? You could always start a new blog for your baby girl and still add snippets to Willow's :) I love the hydrangeas in your stable!

  2. Since Mira is a part of Willow's history, you should keep it on this blog. It is truly a continuation of Willow's story and her legacy that you cherish so deeply.

  3. I think you should continue on here, if it wasn't for Willow you would not have got Mirabella, she is the light that has come from the dark and like any great written saga, you should continue the tale....... this is the next chapter xxx Paloma is beautiful, can't wait for you to add some photos and an update. xxx

  4. I think Willow will want you to continue on here, or she may think she has been forgotten. Although I know you haven't and never will forget her!

  5. Oh please don't start a new blog! (when I say please, I do it in that moany "pleeeeeeeeeeze" way!!) Why? Well, it's Willow's blog, and what is happening now, is still part of Willow's story...I fell in love with Willow from thousands of miles away...her legacy is what is happening in your world now...without her, this new chapter wouldn't be. I do so very much hope you keep the blog here xxxxxx

  11. Whatever is right for you, but I like keeping Willow's legacy alive here.

  12. Yes, absolutely do what feels right to you. And it's actually not only a choice between keeping this blog or starting a new one. If you'd prefer, you could simply expand the title of Willow's blog... you know, something like Velvet Willow and Her Special Gift. I'm sure you can come up with something better, but just a thought. :-)

    Congratulations on your new baby, and it's wonderful to see Paloma featured again.

  13. I agree with everyone but would like to see you to continue with Willow's Legacy! <3

  14. Paloma looks so beautiful. The thing I like about you keeping Willow's blog, is the awareness you have already introduced about horse rescue and the realization there are horses out there that are going through tough times and need help. Plus, the blog represents the story of rescue, hope, love, loss and new-found love, miracles and hope again. It's like the circle of life and how it just keeps going around and around. Willow's story hasn't ended, the circle of life is still going around...
    But, it truly is up to you and how you feel about it :)

  17. Continue here, because life goes on. Willow will always be part of the future too, and she will always be in your heart and a part of the continuing story. :)

  18. Stay here, as Willow's story is evolving. I love this story. It fills my heart with joy. Everything happens for a reason. xoxo

  19. WIllow led you here to this new chapter but you have to be comfortable with it continuing on this page rather than a new one. Seems so natural after all the signs in the last few days to keep it here.

  20. I think you should continues Mirabella's story on here with Willow's since they seem to intertwined with each other and with you! That way they will always seem connected to each other here on this blog.

  35. I think you should keep the story here....I will follow it no matter what, but the whole story started with Willow, she was the beginning and what led you on the journey to begin with. I feel this is just a continuation, the next chapter, but the same story.
