No Saddle, No Hassle
Is she about to fall? She reminds me of the statues in Greece. Isn’t she afraid of falling and shattering her bones? Oh well. From my viewpoint, I don’t think she’s smiling like that just because she’s having a good time—–I’m sure she feels very confident that she’ll succeed. But I was going somewhere with that, so move on.
Why would a mother ride a horse without a saddle and let it neigh and stand on two legs? It’s because she can. She may appear dorky, but it’s clear that she has the “horseback rider” genes in her blood. The balance, control, and talents are indisputably excellent. On the other hand, her infectiously happy grin was what sealed the deal for me!
