Sadie came home with me again after church. But then Virginia and Mike brought Allie after lunch.
She hasn’t been sitting up by herself long, but her balance is already good enough to sit on the bouncy horse. She might be ready to ride Otoelene with me by Spring.
Every time Sadie passed by a window she would say horse, horse. So after her nap we bundled up to go see the horses. Hugo was still standoffish, but he eventually let me carry Sadie up to him and let us pat him.
Otoelene wasn’t standoffish at all. Sadie even sat on her bareback for a little bit. A very nice day with the grandchildren.
It's quite interesting that Hugo is wary of the littles. How is he around mini horses? I often think it's a depth perception thing, when horses are scared of minis. As though they expect them to be a full sized horse and as they get closer and see that they aren't it freaks them. I had a good mare whose only foible was her reaction to mini horses. Like she couldn't believe her eyes. Maybe it's the same with small humans.
ReplyDeleteAllie on the bouncy horse and Sadie saying horse, horse, horse. Right up your alley :)
