Paddy's Second Private

Today we had Paddy do what PC did the first day: Grids. We worked on finding a good pace, then being STILL. I hate to say it, but I think it’s easier to be still on Paddy; he’s VERY smooth. And—I feel a little guilty—but when I didn’t get a good pace, he found it for me IN the grid. What a guy!

Rainey said something very, very nice, something I needed to hear, I think: “Don’t let ANYONE make you feel bad about having such a nice horse. You deserve this horse. Don’t ever let anyone tell you differently.”

Thanks, Rainey. I needed that!
