Chuck D & Mr. T

Two weeks ago I did a trail ride in rock creek park. It was so nice and relaxing. As we were going past the creek about 30 tiny white butterflies (maybe moths) flitted up-it was magical. I rose a huge Belgian draft horse names Andrew who was so lazy but really sweet.

For the past two weeks I’ve been riding an amazing Oldenburg named Cookie who I’m totally in love with. I want to lease him but he isn’t really a jumper and I need to jump I think. Cookie is bouncy in his trot but I love it and his canter is so unbelievably smooth.

Teddy is a caring and good friend. I’m so thrilled for him. It will make him have a good life.

Charlie, will you hold still and hang out with me long enough for me to take your picture?

I let him climb around as much as he can.

Teddy’s singing at the pajama party-The Lion Sleeps Tonight- was so sweet and almost has me in tears.

Here are the pictures from the renaissance fair visit.

This is how great my father in law is. I was over swimming with the kids yesterday and he comes out and tells me his masseuse is there and that he will watch the kids while I go get a half hour massage. Soooo thoughtful. I’m so lucky. It was so relaxing. And so loving.

I was in Charlie’s classroom helping out the other day. I love being in schools. The minute I step into a classroom I feel such joy and stress melts away. Being with children around is lifting.
