She loved her new horse..well pony. Though she was the size of a small toddler now due to all the "secret" baby formula she's been drinking, her horse was just as little. Maybe 4 feet off the ground. They were perfect for each other. Maybe I can ask Daddy if I can keep her?

After getting to know our horses and ride them we went inside for dinner. Corn bread, chili with cheese and sour cream with a salad on the side! Yummy!! We dish up and then all go sit out by the fire. There's 4 ranch hands all together, the owners, and a few other people also renting cabins. This food is so good.

"Thank you all for dinner! This is delicious!"

Daddy says, appreciating what they've made. The sunset is a beautiful pink sky, fluffy clouds that look like cotton candy. But they look like thunderstorm clouds...no...I hate storms there can't be one coming when I'm not home! I start to panic, I start crying because I'm worrying so much.

"Oh honey what's wrong? Come here let me hold you."

Daddy says as he picks me up, cuddling me close. I tell him about the storm coming, how I'm terrified. He comforts me, kissing my forehead. He whispers quietly in my ear

"Little one, we need to change your pull up"

"Nu uh!!! I don't want change I big girl."

I say as I give major attitude towards Daddy. Uh oh. I shouldn't have done that.

"Ahem. Go. Now."

Daddy points to our cabin, awwww. I don't wanna go. I cower and make my way back to the cabin with daddy close behind. Great I'm in trouble now. I sit down on the bed not wanting to move.

"Get up. Take your jeans off."

I do as I say, he sets be back onto the bed and gets a new pull up. But before putting it on he picks me up, sets me over his knees and spanks me multiple times. I start crying like a baby, begging for him to stop.

"I sorry I sorry! I won't give attitude"

I'm crying even harder as he gives one, very hard smack on my butt. It's burning! Waaahhh! Daddy picks me up, puts my new pull up on, jammies and my binky in my mouth. It quiets me down as daddy holds me and rocks me asleep.

I wake up to a huge rumble in the sky. Then Lightning. Oh no! Angel! She's out there all alone! I need to go save her! I quietly put jeans and boots on with a big jacket. I open the door and it's pouring rain outside, I hear her neighing and running around scared of the storm. I run to the arena and go in, the other horses are under the shelter but Angel isn't she's too scared. I grab her halter and try to move her but she doesn't budge. I get on the fence and jump onto her back, she rears up, me almost falling off. I grip her mane as right as I can, but then she takes off galloping! I can't hold on!

"Whoa girl!!"

She continues running, part of the fence blew down so she escapes through the gap with me on her back. I pull and pull on her mane but it does nothing. I'm panicking the storm is too close, we're gonna get hit by the lightning! I start crying and hold onto her neck. What seems like forever we finally stop by a huge tree.

Rumble! Rumble!

The Thunder cracks the sky as lightning appears. Angel rears up again, me falling off. I slam my head into a rock. Blood...I can feel it trickle down the side of my face...it's going black...I can't see....pure...darkness. Hours go by. I'm still unconscious as Angel watches over me. Angel neighs as she hears a tree branch crack. Someone's there. I'm barely conscious when I hear it again. I sit up but am hit with severe pain in my head.

"Whose there!? Leave us alone!!"

All of a sudden two men on horses...Chad and Woody. Thank god. I start balling my eyes out, I sit there in pain and dizzy. They run to my side and pick me up, putting me on the same saddle as Chad so I don't fall off. He holds onto me as we make our way back to the ranch. The rain has settled. It's quiet out. I hear sirens, and see bright lights. Daddy yells me name

"Baby!!"

He runs to me picking me up, he hurry and takes me to the ambulance where I pass out again. I'm losing a lot of blood. The ambulance takes me to the hospital...a day later I wake up. I can hear men talking.

"Dadd...daddy?"

He runs to my side, hugging me. He starts crying.

"Oh baby! You're awake! No stay laying down, you've had a major concussion. Relax."

I lay my head back down. The doctor comes over and does some tests.

"Looks like you'll be able to go home in just a couple days, that concussion took a major toll on your little body."

"A couple days!? I wanna go home right now!"

Daddy gives me the Daddy look. Annnd that's where I don't say anything else or I'll get into trouble. Whoops. I guess I haven't lost my attitude! Ha!

A few days pass and I'm finally home. Still on the shaky side but I can walk around just fine. Daddy still tries to carry me everywhere. I know better than to fight it though.

"What you did was SO dangerous. You could've been killed in that weather. You've lost your horse privileges for a while now. No ifs ands or buts from you young lady."

"Awwww!"

I'm so sad, I love Angel I don't wanna leave her already. It's not her fault I took her out to go ride in a storm. Daddy lays me in bed, sticking my
Binky Into my mouth. He lays next to me and cuddles.

"Now go to sleep it's been a long couple of days."

He kisses my forehead and I close my eyes...drifting off to sleep...
