Chapter Thirty Eight

At the weekend the whole family gathers in the kitchen to eat breakfast together

Whilst outside, Cashew feeds her foals their own breakfast 

 Having being nursed by her mother, Cinnamon wandered around the garden inquisitively

Before Miralys came out to play with her 

Tamara had shown Miralys how to care for a horse and so Mira put this into action as part of her plan to make friends with the foals 

Later, she played a couple of games of chess against her father 

 And tried out the mini oven her parents had got her, it was perfect for muffins and cookies

 In the evening Mira bottle-fed Thunder while Cinnamon nursed from Cashew

Inside, Joshua continued to read books to little Menolly 

After dinner that night, Joshua and Tamara decided that they'd been rather too busy with the children and decided to spend some time reconnecting... 

 Outside, Fluff had been practising her hunting skill 

As well as playing pounce with Smudge 

 Joshua's new garden was coming along well, with the first fruits ready to be harvested 

While Tamara and Midnght were gaining great plaudits for their success in the races

 Joshua had also found that having horses provided an excellent source of fertilizer for his garden

And he was able to sell more and more produce 

But he still made time to help Miralys with her homework 

 And of course to brush and play with Fluff and Smudge

 Soon however, it was Menolly's birthday

She grew up into a lovely young girl (I'm afraid I can't remember what her third trait is, will check when I next play my game)

 And immediately joined her sister at the chess table for a game
