Soon it was everywhere in the tidy little village. Something had to be done, and Sheriff Hardy aimed to do it.

A strong cowgirl isn't perfect but chooses courage, the cowgirl way, most often. As you read about choices may you see the value and power they hold. Each challenge we face in life, and we will face them, offers a choice of how to respond.

Cowgirl is a spirit; an attitude. The choice of a life lived with courage, conviction, faith and intention. Cowgirls wish on stars and dandelions but then get to work to make them happen.

She trusts that all things work together for the good of all. The Heart of a Cowgirl is based on Proverbs 31 and as you read about the cowgirl may the words encourage you to keep saddling up and roping your dreams
