I've been giving riding lessons lately and I was just thinking about my childhood. It's funny how I learned to ride. My Popa had gotten out of the horse
business already so it was a while before he started teaching me how to ride. I was the typical 4 year old that had one dream.. only to own a pony. My daddy and I had gone to Dog Day in Ardmoreand that's where I saw Forest, my first pony. He was the ugliest thing ever, but I loved him! Luckily my dad was a sucker and I talked him into it
I didn't have a saddle so my parents found one for me to borrow. The Smiths let me use their pony saddle... which HAD NO HORN
It's really the small things that mean the most in life.
Now I look back and I'm so thankful for my parents, that mean little pony, and a broken saddle
