Yay! AMAZING DAY!!!!
So I am supper excited to let you guys know today has been a super good day! I found out that thankfully my foot is NOT broke!! So we came home cleaned the chicken coop and then we got Romeo out to ride him at home for the first time! He did AMAZING! His canter is VERY smooth and Alex cantered on his own for the first time tonight, and Vironica even cantered him and vironica hasn't cantered much at all before its been about 2 years sense she has cantered because Jack becomes very unpredictable while cantering he likes to slam on the breaks or try to bolt, so she finally cantered and I hope that maybe Romeo can help her build some confidence when it comes to cantering. The most AMAZING part of the night was when my mom came out and got on a horse for the first time in over 16 years.... I will tell you about a conversation my mom and I had awhile back and she said she would never get on any of our horses because she has seen them spook or buck and everything else that they have done, and she does have a point the horses have done that and no horse is 100% safe but she also experienced me blacking out when I fell of Chuck all those years ago, and that sticks with her, that because of Chuck I could have died... and I don't blame her one bit for not getting on a horse, but she did get on Romeo... and I cried, I cried with pure joy that my mom got on a horse with her anxiety and everything she got on, even though she was shaking and scared she got on and she rode... I hope she will continue to ride with us Romeo is such a good horse and he will be great for her to re-gain her confidence. She started with a short ride and Romeo did amazing for her and I couldn't be more happy with him. I will be sure to upload the videos of Vironica and I riding Romeo, sadly I didn't get one of Alex and here is a picture of my mom riding Romeo for you. I can't even put into words how amazing it is to see her on a horse and smiling....
