The vest that had been in the family for generations being passed on from father to son. His father had been given this vest at his age of adult hood. He had never removed it like the previous owners before him.

To him it was more than just a vest but part of the family. The vest had a special enchantment put on it many generations ago back when it was first made. The enchantment made the vest shrink and grow to the size of the colt waring it.

The father took vary good care of this vest and always let little Scoots try it on. Scoots didn't really worry to much about the vest but wore it happily for his father. Though he was still to young to speak he kept close to his father watching every decision.

When his father would go out on long business trips he would be happy to be with his mother but he always ended up looking out the window waiting for his dad to return.

When the mother first met the father he was waring the vest. She knew how much it meaning it had to him so she didn't ask him to ever remove it no matter what they were doing. For the first years she never saw him without the vest on.

After the 3rd year of being with him she tough he might remove it one time but he kept it close to him no matter what witch made her flood the floor in tears when he removed it, placed it on her back before showing her a ring this was his way of proposing to her.

With knowing how much meaning the vest held she couldn't have believed he had removed it for her so she couldn't have dared say no. This was the happiest moment of their lives.

Scoots was running around in the halls chasing after his dad chuckling as they ran. The mother was holding a video camera hoping to see him finally speak for it was around the time most fillies and colts spoke the first time. They kept a close eye on him not wanting to miss it.
