One of my Dad's 3 year old horses died this week and my Dad is taking it very hard.  Cody had a great personality and was incredibly gentle making him a favorite in the barn.  Jill swears that Rose (his mom) cried when he died.  This is a picture of Cody and Jill last Thanksgiving when he was just over two years old.

Updated:  I sent this card to a friend because she just gave birth to her first child (a girl of course!) and choose the sentiment "So worth the wait" because it seemed so suitable to the occassion.  Well look at the picture Amy sent back .... Joy's little outfil says "worth the wait"
