Walk, Trot, Canter

In the heat, the rain, the snow, the dust – she has always wanted to ride. But just ride. Back then she said, “We won’t jump today will we? I don’t want to jump.” And, “I’m NOT going to canter. My stomach hurts, I don’t think I can canter.”

“Can I go first? Can I go now?”

“I’ll be back soon. And we’ll do it again.”

Now she’s all smiles and joy and confidence. And I am so blessed to get to be a witness to it all.
