She loves it and it is so good for her. Maybe Zoya will be the same and love it. She is so beautiful!EVELYNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06586542870867291690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691280826512919640.post-64684375063874110952012-06-28T23:10:11.118-04:002012-06-28T23:10:11.118-04:00Sarah, how is sweet baby Ryan and his mama doing? ...Sarah, how is sweet baby Ryan and his mama doing?

I used to ...Aww, that pony is teeny tiny! So cute!<br /><br />I used to be a "horse girl" when I was growing up, and I took riding lessons for about 10 years. It was always my big dream to help out at the therapeutic riding sessions, but they only happened in the daytime, when I was in school...<br /><br />Anyway, Zoya looks like she can be a really good rider, she has a very good posture on the horses back. So cute! Go Zoya! :DAnna from Swedennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691280826512919640.post-66448186150048692792012-06-26T17:04:00.718-04:002012-06-26T17:04:00.718-04:00Don't even know you guys but am just sooo prou...Don't even know you guys but am just sooo proud of your sweet Zoya! She did an awesome job and looked just adorable on the pony! <br />Also, it is really clear just how much trust she has in her mama and I know in part that is because she knows she is respected--fears and all! I love how you and your husband don't push or (heaven forbid!)ridicule her for having fears and anxieties. I've seen that far too often in my life and it is just so sad for the kids when their parent/caregivers do that.<br /> Anyway, glad you had a great time! Way to go, Zoya!Lorinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691280826512919640.post-34171348437102561912012-06-24T12:14:46.357-04:002012-06-24T12:14:46.357-04:00It looks like Zoya had a GREAT day!

Unfortunately at that place they have to be 6 to ride, so we found another therapeutic riding center that starts at age 3!!! And I think my neighbors would have a heart attack if we got a pony...although that one wasn't MUCH bigger than a very big dog LOL!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08935757091952994294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691280826512919640.post-31371845863355882742012-06-24T10:46:05.828-04:002012-06-24T10:46:05.828-04:00Yes every time we talk about Maple she says "...Yes every time we talk about Maple she says "TEETH!!!"

I work with deaf/hearing-impaired babies from birth to age 3 and this darling little one year old has a conductive hearing loss that we watch carefully. Tubes have helped greatly, but we still watch her! She is learning sign language to augment her wonderful emerging verbal skills!!<br />Your girls are amazing and I LOVE visiting your blog to see what they are doing!<br />We adopted both of our girls too (they are 14 and 18 now) and if I wasn't almost 51 I would adopt a child with ds from RR in a heartbeat!! They are truly a blessing!!<br /><br />Susan from BostonSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01680435831956681078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-691280826512919640.post-46507548958872626502012-06-24T00:54:04.042-04:002012-06-24T00:54:04.042-04:00Oh my goodness, what a triumph for her!

I'm so happy for Zoya as I do love horseback riding. 4 years old is the best age to begin and if she enjoys she'll become a great rider. What wonderful opportunities you're giving them. I hope riding becomes a passion for her. In that case I forsee a new furry member of the family in the future ...;).
