Cheers!
I have a lot of family visiting this week.  Welle and Wonder were asked to play the role of "Kid's Pony".  They both worked in super style.  Actually, I am a tad worried that Welle liked it a little too much.  Christopher, my sister's nine year old son wanted to ride first.  So once mounted I led her forward so he could experience the feel of the walk movement.  I had to slow her a bit as I saw his eyes pop out of his head at the start.  Welle has quiet a power walk.  But she quickly learned to lollygag.   Once balanced, we put her out on the lunge and trotted.  He sat and held on.  Early in the trot I told Welle to slow down a few more times until she was in a lazy jog.  She happily jogged for the next three kids' rides.  Then my sister, who rode all through her childhood, got on.  Welle offered her a lazy jog.  So then I ended up coaching Welle with the lunge whip to get her engines going.  But she told me clearly she liked the jogging thing....  humm.
