Said goodbye to a pretty special friend the other night. Flicka was around 35-36 years old and she more than served her purpose. You see around here we have 'missionary cats' and 'missionary horses'. Flicka served faithfully her whole entire life and I am so grateful that God has given me the privilege of working with horses with such heart. She could turn on a dime, knew the “Rainbow Pattern” by heart and would take care of the smallest kid and give them the confidence that they needed to take the next step.
The last few days with Flicka when we would bring her to the barn for the night and for grain she would follow me anywhere... You could call her name and she would come. Flicka survived the storm Atlas in 2013 along with 6 other horses. I was so happy to find that she had pulled through! She was a special horse that holds a special place in my heart. Thanks God for Flicka. I am gonna miss her.
