Riding

I finally got to go watch Isabel ride.  I usually babysit Auntie's kids while she takes Isabel out riding.  We changed it to a bit later so the dad's could be home and I could go to watch.  It was SO amazing watching Isabel do her tricks and be able to control the horse and do what she wanted through her foot and leg commands, also through the reigns too.  They've been working on leg and feet commands and she's doing great.  Auntie Rachie was telling me how much Isabel has learned and how well she's progressing.  She said that she is doing great and she is gifted to ride.  Rach also said that she could enter competitions and do well in them.  However, she also said we'd have to get a new trainer in about a year if she wants to continue with riding because she'll be beyond her training ability.  It was super neat to be there watching her and having Rachel tell me all this and how natural it comes to her and how well and fast she's improving.  I was a proud mama for sure.
Avery also got to ride and had a blast. They got to ride next to each other and Isabel was helping give her a few pointers.  It was cool to watch.
Rach, your the best!  Thanks for doing all you do for Isabel.  Your love and passion for riding has helped Isabel's love and passion for riding a dream come true and we can never thank you enough!
