Today my Spring Break started and I naturally wanted to
spend the day at the barn. I didn’t get to see Jasper over the weekend and when
I opened the gate this morning he was having a nice roll in the sand (one of
his favorite things to do) and I called out to him. I swear my heart swelled
with joy when he lifted his head and looked at me. Every time he follows me
around or walks directly up to me I feel such an immense sense of peace. Darah
helped me clean stalls and do a weed clearing then it was time to play. We
groomed Jasper and headed for the round pen to let Darah enjoy her first ride
on him. I think I enjoy watching him move as much as I enjoy riding him. Later
on Leslie brought out Angel and lunged her for the first time. She did
amazingly well and looked absolutely beautiful with her head held high. It was
a perfect day with plenty of laughter filled moments and I can’t wait to repeat
the process again tomorrow.
