My Little Pony

When I was a little girl, I had a Fisher-Price pony to ride on. I remember the black mane, polka-dotted neck, red seat, wheels that made a clicking sound, little blue compartment underneath for hiding necessities, and the reigns that made the horse neigh. Several of my favorite photos from when I was a toddler involved the horse. At some point, it was sold at a yard sale.

Jump ahead to a few months ago, and I decided that Mollie just had to have one. Thank you, Ebay! It took me a little while and some sneaky bidding, but I won one. Granted the white plastic has yellowed some with age, my little Mollie loves it. She makes the horse "neigh", and she tries to climb on it. We still have to help her stay on it, but once on, she rocks back and forth while walking to get it moving. It's just precious. Here is a photo I took of Mollie and her horse at the Botanic Gardens. Enjoy!
