I had just talked to Mr Smith a few nights before that Lexi would love to ride a horse and asked if he knew anyone that could give her a chance to ride. Little did we realize, one of his physicians had a neighbor with horses. We went to their summer party expecting goats and pigs, but got surprised with a horse ride! I was so excited she got her chance. She was doing her usual non-listening run around exploration in a new, over-stimulated environment, but when we asked if she wanted to follow us to ride a horse, she lit up. I could have seen her all talk until she sat on the horse by herself, but she did it! She was just soaking it all in. She had a chance to walk around on two horses and she was completely calm both times. She was so filthy from that night, even laid down in the dirt to be next to the family dog. But it was a good night for making dreams come true. Even the goats liked her.
It's really just beginning: Sometimes, even as ordinary as it seems, I need to share it. To get it all out there. It drives Mr Smith nuts that I share my life. But I do. And this is it. We aren't perfect, but I love Mr Smith and this blog is dedicated to our life together. It's so I can remember. It's so our children may know."
