I find my profession

I want to be a farrier. I do not want to be a dressage horse. mom says that a Dressage horse is a honorable profession, but my passion lies in feet. My farrier has the most fascinating tools. he has snips and files and all sorts of wonderful things. I like to pick them up and figure them out. I like to watch him work. I want a pair of funny chaps too. Mom says that Farriers need thumbs, but John the Farrier says that I can be a farrier too. Mom says that everyone in my family were dressage horses, and that I'm going to be a dressage horse too. I say Phooey. Mom take me to Farrier school!
