Never too young

This is my little nephew, Weston. I opened my email this morning and found these two photos from my sister-in-law. Seeing him sitting in a saddle with that big grin made my day. It is hard to live 5 states away...you worry you are missing so much. But to see Weston that happy in the saddle, I know I already have had "some" influence in his life:-) I didn't know cinch straps could be so "tasty."

What a cutie! Will he come and visit his auntie and learn to ride ponies during summer vacations once he's older?

Mine tried to eat the saddle too. Hmmm, must be tasty! He's super cute, and you're right. Never too young to get started!

Oh, how cute is that! Those straps must taste awful, but there will be tooth marks to remember his first ride.

Tee hee - I always try to indoctrinate all my friends' babies from day one by showing them my horses and talking about horses and letting them pet Mira and Andolu. The parents are like, "whatever" but I figure the sooner the better! It's nice to see your nephiew taking to riding so early.
