Horse Rides

This week our mom's group went to God's Glory Center which is a place that offers horse riding lessons and they teach the kids how to do all the chores for the horses as well, that's if they are old enough. I wasn't sure how Isaac was going to take to the horses, but I tried to get him all pumped up before we got there and then when we got in the barn he took one look up and saw the horse in it's pen and he froze in place and said "no, no, no, no". So I had to carry him for awhile and he was so tense I knew he wouldn't let me put him down.

Then we walked over to where all the kids were getting rides on the big horses and he said "I wanna ride" so we waited for our turn and he got right on that horse and never made a fuss about it. The only fuss he gave me was that when I put him on the horse he wanted to get going and so he rocked back and forth and made his noise he does when he wants to go, but then the horse finally started walking and he just looked like such a little man up on that horse. He did a good job holding on as well and never let go, I was so proud of him for how well he did. Then we had to get off and he did not like that, he would have liked to stay on that horse all day long. So looks like horse riding is in our future, which I would love!
