The LR Rides alone!

Big day today!  The lovely LR came down with her clueless mum, I was pleased to see them and pleased to see she had brought her helmet.  I was happy for her to bring me in, tack me up and take me into the school for a ride.  This was the first time she has ridden me without Jade being there. We did some trotting, a bit of cantering, not much and not for long but it was a great start and I think she is starting to trust me now.  She gave me lots of cuddles and a big arm rounder lying on my back.  I think this means we are friends.  She said she was going away for a few days to see her mum's mum but that she would be back as soon as possible.  Can't wait.

The day before she had ridden me as part of a group lesson with the other  little ponies (they are a bit annoying to be honest) but i was proud to have her as my rider.  I did my best over the jumps and maybe I did a bit much as she seemed really surprised how high i jumped!  I think  i might have overdone it, but that's how i like to jump so hopefully she'll get used to it.  it's fun.  Maybe that's why she didn't jump me today...  we'll work it out.

PS i have some bites on my haunches from that Tangle pony they put in my field on tuesday.  I've let her alone now because she's been hassled enough and she can certainly nip!  The LR was concerned bless her but they don't really hurt.
