My daughter, nearly 3, went for her assessment at Barnsley Riding for the Disabled this morning. She loved it! We were expecting her to be a little difficult as she doesn't like to feel "insecure", but it was great!

I, being me, obviously took the camera along...:)

    This will be SO wonderful for your daughter. Therapeutic riding is HUGE for adults and children with a wide range of challenges - physical and mental. There's one lady that was an Olympic dressage competitor who was badly injured in an accident and is now participating in a therapeutic riding program in hopes of regaining at least some of her strength and skills. I hope your daughter truly enjoys it - horses are the best therapists in the world! Go Annie!

    Thank you. I have never had a lot of time for horses, but I can see quite clearly how this will help Annie. So I am extremely proud to have her do it. :)

    Cheers
