Jenny has absconded with the heart of any animal I've ever had the privilege to know. Once, I brought home a tiny Jack Russell puppy, thinking it would be all mine for a change. Raising 6 kids means either giving everyone their own (heaven forbid!), or having to share the household pets including the family cat, which turns you into a pet oger somehow lol. 'Bandit' was adorable, played at my heels as I went about my day on the ranch, but that all ended when Jenny came home. She was about 4 years old at the time. He was only hers and hers only from the moment they laid eyes on each other. Nothings changed. This personable gelding took a big fancy for the little thief this last weekend, and, oh well. Such is life when you have a daughter like Jenelle!
