If you remember, he had a tiny little pony named Angel for the first and second sessions he was in. At the end of the lessons last time, the teacher told us that he would get moved on to a bigger horse for the next session since poor Angel couldn't hold him any longer.
We got to the stables and find the sign and lo and behold, they have Ethan on Angel again. Poor little guy was devistated. He was looking forward to a big horse...he immediately started crying and pinching me.
I told the instructor and unfortunately there wasn't much she could do! Well, I just prayed, I knew that he wasn't going to get on Angel without a fight....luckily, there was still a little girl who hadn't arrived for the lesson yet. She got there, and she was TINY!!!....so the very smart instructor, switched her and Ethan...She got little Angel and Ethan got a really big horse named Flicka!
He was soooooo excited....but me...well, I know that he has a tendency to fall asleep on the horses so I'm looking at this horse, who's back is as high as my ear and am thinking that is a mighty big fall!! On another lucky note, Ethan's volunteer is Darryl...the same guy that lead him in Ethan's first session.
Here is a picture of Flicka....It's not very good since the lights in the area reflect off the camera somehow, but this week I'll try to get a pic in the barn...If you click on the picture, it will get bigger and you can see it a bit better!
