"Yes Emma?"
"When are we gonna practice driving again? Things are getting awful boring around here."
"Well Em, I just haven't had the time. Besides, I thought you'd had enough excitement to last a while with those wasps and all. There's also the little matter of no harness yet as well...."
"Ah phooey Ma, I don't want to hear any more excuses! I'm not afraid of any stinkin' wasps. You're just gonna have to make some time and as for the harness...
I got that covered. I know, I know. It's always good to have the right tool for the job, but if you haven't got it, make do! Isn't that what you're always telling me? I've got this all figured out...
just pick up the harness, put your head down and pull....
Easy peesy. You humans always go and make things more complicated than they need to be. I keep telling ya, you really ought to learn how to be more like donkeys."
Very true. I watched a 9 yr old create a contraption with twine string for her mule to help pick up sticks in the yard before mowing time.
ReplyDeleteLooks like your donks want something to do!
:)
They desperately do need a job!
DeleteIt's amazing what one can make out of twine when the need arises:)
oh, that is so cute!
ReplyDeletewhat a smart girl!
ReplyDeleteLet me go dig through my tack room. I think I still have a pony harness that would fit her and I'd love to find it a good home if it's in safe condition.
ReplyDeleteI would certainly be interested if you have that might work. I've got some vague schemes in mind for some homemade harness, but you know how that can go:)
DeleteShe is soooooo smart!

That's a clever girl Emma!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Star likes to pick up Halters and lead ropes and do this same thing. But Buddy never does. Only Star and then she will bring it and try to give it to me! LOVE LOVE my donkeys!
ReplyDeleteLOL cute Emma! Way too clever for her own good!
