Dad made me a rocking horse when I was very small. This creature looks more like a dinosaur than a horse with its oversized head. Chocolate has been ridden many miles and has withstood crayon scribbles, tail braiding and now has metal braces holding his head on. Not the prettiest looking thing, but she is a "kid pony". Perfectly balanced for little kids to ride even without holding on.Mom has made a couple much more aesthetically pleasing horses, but Dad says they are too fast for the little ones more like race horses. And what kids need are ponies.
Today Bentley put a few more miles on old Chocolate. Hands free with his feet wrapped around the neck.

He looks like a little Chod, that's for sure! (minus the drool on his shirt... or maybe not!)
