Zoralee's first force ride

(and by "force," I mean horse, not forced)

Jason had long been anticipating giving Zoralee her first horse ride, which he got to do on Harley, whom he had trained three summers ago, when I was pregnant with Z. All was well for the 10 minute ride around the yard, until the bumpiness apparently bumped the excitement and bravery out of little Z and she broke into tears. Still, it was a beautiful experience to witness, and hopefully she won't remember the ending so much.
