  65. About the Author

Daddy starts laughing and shakes his head as he kneels, so he is the same height as me. "Baby, he isn't trying to hurt you. He is just making sure you won't get hurt with the horses. They can be dangerous la mia principessa," daddy says as he moves the hair out of my face. He then looks up at the man behind us. "Did something happen?"

"Thalia tried to touch Nyx. He is the new horse I told you about. The one that has issues."

My dad nods his head and looks back at me. "The horse you were about to touch is dangerous. It's good you didn't touch him."

"But I want to ride one."

"Okay. You can ride one. Just one that fits your size, Thalia," daddy stands up and grabs my hand and Alexander's, who is next to me. "Let's go find a good horse for you guys to ride and then you can explore the rest of the land, okay?"

Alexander ended up getting a white horse and I asked daddy if I could get a black one so he gave me a black one.

I wanted to ride the bigger black ones, but daddy said it was too dangerous.

As Alexander and I ride the horse, mommy holds my hand while taking pictures. Daddy and Alexander's dad, Leo, are walking behind us while Emma and mommy are next to us. I wanted mommy to ride with me, but daddy said she couldn't because she was holding my baby brother in her stomach.

Alexander wants to go faster on the horse but the guy from the stables, whose name is Luca, told him to not go fast since this was his first time riding the horse.

After Alexander and I are done riding the horses, mommy and daddy tell us to go look around the farm some more.

When Alexander and I walk past the chicken pen, I start walking a little faster than him because I hate chickens. He laughs but doesn’t tease me. Instead, he makes us go the opposite way so I won’t be scared.

That's one of the things I love most about him, he always looks out for me and makes sure I am okay.

Now, Alexander and I are sitting on the grass where there are small flowers around us.

"What do you want to do when you are bigger? Like as an adult like our moms and dads?" I ask Alexander and he looks at me as he picks the grass.

He shrugs his shoulders, "I don't know. I kind of like what they do."

"How they make people turn red?" Alexander laughs and nods his head. "It's so weird that we are getting older. You're already six!"
