There was a moment when I laughed out loud, giddy with happiness and relief, my heart lifting at seeing them together. Scout asserted her supremacy through a quick show of squealing and striking. Saxony consented and that was the end of it. I stayed for hours, watching them and reflecting on the presence of horses in my life. I feel fortunate and rich for having my mares, each so different, each so strong, each connected to such different parts of me. The future has finally begun.

I'm glad to hear it all came together so easily. You just never know with mares. LOL
Today, I had one of mine running the darn fenceline and I'm sure it was all about hormones. Poor thing.....
I am so happy and relieved! Now you won't be split between two places. They look so good together.
They look wonderful together! I love how their faces mirror each other. Two sides of the same coin.
Happy girls happy! So glad they are together and getting along.

Thank you, everybody, for your happy words. And Julie, a horse rattled you and then you return in a side saddle? Brave, brave person!
"Each connected to such different parts of me" - that is so true, it is wonderful to have two mares. I'm glad you have them together now. It will change things.
