Every kid dreams of having a pony. When I was younger, I like many other kids my age was obsessed with horses. I would play horses at recess with my friends, I took horseback riding lessons, sported clothes with horses on them, and I must have read every horse book in the library. Back then there was no such thing as having a pony party. If there was, my mom certainly didn’t know about them.
