A Valentine's Day Surprise

 I did not think yesterday could get any better--the sun was shining, the sky was blue, it was not freezing, I finally felt better...and then my phone tweeted...and my heart smiled so big I could feel it.
 Just yesterday afternoon I had been looking at the movie I took of Rio when I was home at Christmas, and how I had hoped when the spring came that Dad would be able to get down to the barn to see him.  We have been waiting on the horse hoof fixer for a while now, as Rio needed a hoof trimmed.  He was finally able to get there yesterday, and it was sunny and pleasant.  Frankie did the next best thing to Dad being able to get to the barn to see Rio; he brought Rio to the house to see Dad.

Rio is all fixed up now, and Sis said Dad smiled the whole time he was holding Rio.  I am still smiling.

I'm smiling, too. I can only imagine how thrilled your Dad and Rio were to see each other!

So sweet! Glad they got to be together again!

Thanks--yes, it was very emotional for all of us. Dad is doing well right now, but he felt so good to be out doing something.

That's definitely a smile inducing moment right there. :)

Yes, still makes me smile every time I see it. :)
