Exciting adventure

Hello! I had quite a exciting adventure when i had a lesson at great lakes equestrian center....I usually ride Von Wolf, when i have a lesson but last week they decided to put me on Bailey. I did start off riding bailey but i have never cantered on her. Josie was my trainer that day i usually have Erica training me but this time Josie was because Erica was in Florida at a show. So Josie wanted me to canter in Bailey. I told Josie that Erica said baileys canter was fast and i have never done it before, but Josie still said i could try so OK... I tried it was fun it wasn't that fast and i thought oh wow real fast! But then i had to try the other way around and i asked for the canter a little harder than before..... HO Bailey STOP!!!!!!! Bailey went flying! The fastest Ive ever gone on a horse and i didn't even lose one stirrup!!! i was holding on to the mane screaming my head off this horse was going Way to fast! Josie manged to get her to stop after a long time! I am amazed that i didn't fall off! Josie told me she was suprised that i didn't fall off either! I realized i was a little too confident and asked for the canter too hard. I had a exciting night! Thank you LORD for safety as I didn't fall off Bailey and thank you for horses and your creation.

Wow! Sydney, that was quite an adventure! I'm so proud of you for not falling off! You are a good rider! So now I wonder what horse you'll ride next time! Will it be the same one or a different one? I'll be praying for you. I love you very, very much!
