Oh my goodness, this is a very hard question! But, I’m confident that I can come up with an answer that my daughter, Elbow, would be happy with and that she could blog. 🙂

Well, I don’t know very much about horses, but I really like the Clydesdale horses that are in the Christmas commercials and the ones that are in parades.

#3. Was it from Ellie’s horse book that she made with her dad & her Southern Grandma?

Even though Ellie and Southern Grandma’s horse book is AMAZING, I actually picked my favorite horse based on what I’ve seen in TV commercials and parades. Also, my Auntie Barb and Uncle Ross rode in a carriage driven by Clydesdale horses to and from their wedding! Ross’s dad had the horses and carriage. It was very very cool!

#4. Where was it from?The Clydesdale horse originated in Scotland, which is very close to England, which is where Mary Poppins is from!

A Clydesdale horse is really big and strong. They were often used for farming and pulling machinery before there were tractors. Their color is usually white and brown.

Carl is a North Germanic male name meaning “free man”. The name originates in Old West Norse.

#9. Would it have a last name?
