I am really starting to worry about Sunpearl. Her hoof is really bothering her. Maybe she just needs some sleep and she will feel better. After I helped her inside, I decided to go for a walk in the woods by myself. I felt bad for not spending as much time with Lizzie but she didn't seem to mind, in fact I think that she met someone and has a teensy bit of a crush. It would have to be someone outside of the herds though because I know that she is only friends with the Colts in the herd. I smiled at the thought. One day she will grow up and have her own herd. That was hard to imagine but It was gonna happen eventually. I walked through the woods in silence when I saw Silverblaze and Coco. They were grazing next to eachother and I felt my heart break a little. Why did I care so much? I couldn't figure that out as I turned around and started to walk back with tears burning my eyes. I walked slowly back to the cave as I went back inside. Lizzie was asleep in the corner and I went over and joined her. I snuggled against her body and felt the pain wrenching in my heart. How I missed Blaze. I missed everything about him. I couldn't decide why either. I closed my eyes and fell into a light sleep. I could've only been asleep for a little while when I had the reoccurring dream of when Pepper was born. I woke up with tears streaming down my face which woke Lizzie.
"Mommy what's wrong?!" She frantically nudged me.
I forced a small whisper.
"I'm okay sweetie. Don't worry." I nudged her gently back. Inside though I was an emotional mess. I layed close to Lizzie again without being able to sleep. I just layed there in silence, hoping that there was an end to this dark light.
