These horses have been with me for that long. They are, and always will be, a huge part of my life.
Heidi has been with me for eight years (in about an hour). I started riding her when I was four. Every time I went to Texas after July 20th, 2005, I would ride her. And as you can see, she is still with me to this day. She helped me grow up, and learn to be an equestrian. The first time I saw you is still perfectly clear to me. Patriscio walked you into the barn. I told Christine, "I hope I get to ride her!" And then there you were, standing there and I got to hold you! Then Marletta said I would be riding you. And I am more than happy she said that. Those words changed my life forever. I love you Heidi, so much more than I could ever explain!
And Molly. I can't believe you put up with me for so long! Four years have gone by SO fast! I still remember the first time I rode you. I walked into the barn and saw Kirsten riding you in the ring. And I said "I hope that's the horse I get to ride." And you were. They told me I was going to help train you. Little did I know, I was trying out my future first horse! When I got off, I said "If I had that horse, I'd name her Molly." And Marletta said "Well then, Molly it is!" And now, here we are. I let you fall apart. I ruined you. But we fixed that problem together. And now you're better than you ever were. With every ride, we achieve greatness. More and more than we ever have. And I still can't believe how far we've come. If I had to pick one word that described what's happened to you and I over the past three months, I'd pick improvement. I love you!
* I WANT NO CRITIQUE ON MY RIDING WHEN I WAS YOUNG! WE ALL HAD TO START OUT SOMEWHERE, AND WE ALL PROGRESSED AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. I HAD (AND STILL DO HAVE) A TRAINER TO HELP ME, AND THSES VIDEOS WERE TAKEN A WHILE BACK! THE VIDEOS OF HEIDI WERE ME RIDING WHEN I WAS FIVE AND THE VIDEOS OF ME RIDING MOLLY ARE ME RIDING WHEN I WAS EIGHT.
:D This is adorable. The oldest video I have of me riding is from like... 1 year and a half ago, and honestly its pretty embarrassing. But I put it on youtube anyway. :D
