We went to visit Hilary and her horse Cooner in June. Amelia wasn't sure about Cooner at all. I thought maybe she would warm up to him with Daddy brushing him. Nope. Her response was, "I'm too big."
Evelyn took a nap, like usual. She can't help herself, when she gets in the sling and is all snuggled up to mommy she just has to nap.
Maybe Amelia would warm up to Cooner after watching Hilary ride him around for a little bit.
Nope. So then Daddy rode Cooner.
Nope. She's still too big!
She started to get annoyed with everyone trying to get her to interact with Cooner.
Nothing was going to get her on that horse. She didn't even want to touch him. Then Hilary asked if she wanted to give Cooner a treat. At first she said no, but I told her his treat was a cookie. Well, if he needed a cookie she wasn't going to keep that from him.
She's still talking about how she's too big to ride Cooner, but she has taken an interest into horses at home. She keeps asking to read horse books and has been playing with the horses we have. We are going to go visit later this year and maybe she'll have changed her mind about riding him by then.
