A mother posted a touching video to Facebook showing her son playing with a herd of horses. Our son enjoys going to see the horses in the neighborhood,’ she says.

Surprisingly, equines seem to like his companionship. It appears to be mutual, as he is also an avid equestrian. Seeing the child approach the fence, the three horses on the hill run down to meet him.

Even though they are much larger than the youngster, he claps his hands in joy anyhow. Witnessing their joy at being reunited warms the heart.
