J tells everyone he meets that he is going to be a cowboy when he grows up. His idea of a cowboy is John Wayne, boots, and horses. He LOVES horses but has never ridden one. He tells me all of the time he wants to ride a horse. Well, today he finally had a dream come true!
One of our neighbors just happens to have several horses, one of which is the perfect horse for a very excited four year old boy. After explaining a few safety rules to him, she helped him get into the saddle. They walked around a little and she showed him how to lead the horse. He was a natural! He even wanted to trot a little so she let him.
I also rode while holding K. I may have ridden a horse one other time in my life. It was fun and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't mind doing it again!
J was on cloud nine. He even got a cowboy hat out of the deal! Thanks Justin and Chelsea for letting us come ride Pedro!
