It's 7:30 a.m. on Veterans Day and I'm sitting in bed with my kitten Moses on my chest as I write this.  My husband is sleeping beside me.  He is a Vietnam veteran.  He has the day off work because of the holiday.  If I sit up and look to the left I can see our three horses standing like statues in our back yard.  Their names are Zazu, Nora and Tessi.  All three are Morgan mares.  Zazu is 13 years old - she is my first horse.  Nora is 25 years old - we got her when she was 20.  Tessi is 3 years old.  She is Zazu's baby.  In a moment I'll get up to feed them their breakfast.  I'll also feed the rest of the gang - that is our three angora goats, six hens, four cats and our dog.
