Once again my small but mighty little pony shows his gift for just all around being an awesome boy. 
A friend of mine has never been around/on a horse in her life. She is scared of heights and timid as far as horses go...they are big, so they naturally intimidate people. Well luckily I happen to have a guy just the right size for someone with a horse/height phobia! 
I had her come out to meet Jasper. She's heard all the stories of him and knows that I trust him with my life and he is my world. So I think she was already just over all comfortable with him being that he is my rock. Not only did she have fun with him, but I convinced her to get on him, and she even let me lead her around! XD Took her awhile to get her horse legs, but after awhile she got comfortable. Poor thing, as Jasper walks forward she wobbles all over and goes "I'm a dancer! My feet belong on the ground!." XD Well to this I could only reply "Well they are only about 8 inches from being there." 
I was super proud of her. It's a good thing she is like me and she's out to prove herself because I think the sole reason she initially got on was because if she didn't she knows I'd tease her for not putting her cowgirl boots to good use. I knew she'd be fine on my trusty pony. Haha, and she was. I think she was super proud of herself for getting on and glad that she did it. I'M glad she did it, and I for see some more farm "play dates" in the future. I think she could really grow to like horses....it's way easier to like them when you have a friend right there who knows what they are doing and tell you how to do things.
I'm super proud of Jasper too, I ca always count on him for some comedy relief when it's needed....like trying to take Becka into an apple tree. ....he was helping her get an apple....
Anyways, enough gloating about my pony. I'm sure you all know i have photos!
Here they are!
We started off with getting to know Jasperr's personality......he was more than happy to show his colors.
And she's on! Still tied to the tree. Lol Derek was holding her keys for her....he thought it was funny to pretend to spray my pony in the face with pepper spray. WRONG! 
And we'r off. First lap around the yard.
She also had an encounter with the donkey...
The donk thought that her fingers tasted good enough to eat.
And that's a wrap. I'll keep updating on this subject. I could be wrong but I think Becka is an equestrian in the making...she's just a little behind and had no interaction with horses ever.
