.:[my 16 month old baby rode a horse!]:.

We had a wonderful weekend! I hope you did, too! 

This is report number one:

On saturday we went to see some horses - I didn't really know how Ronja Elina would react. Sure she saw horses before and she loves to ride her rocking horse - but beeing face to face with a real horse and maybe even try to sit on it's back...I just wasn't sure if my little princess would really be brave enough for big action like this.

BUT - she couldn't even get enough! First she helped to curry the horse called Edda, then we watched a friend of mine longe her (so Edda would get a little tired and calm down) and then I very carefully tried to sit my daughter on the horse...

Just like a full pro she sat on Edda giggled and started to do the moves she does to get her rocking horse going!
If you are a mother yourself, you might understand why I had tears in my eyes seeing her sit on there and riding in circles arround the arena...she is 16 month old - how can she act that "big"??? She looked like a two year old up there! My baby is not a baby anymore...thats a strange feeling...but I was soooo proud of course!

I just hope we didn't set the corner stone to the most expensive hobby a kid can have ^^ haha...
