I woke up to the birds singing their beautiful morning melody.
Today's gonna be a great day.
It's Saturday! I changed into my riding clothes and brushed my hair.
I was going to ride Beauty. To me, she's my best friend; the most beautiful and caring horse I've ever seen.
I've always been drawn to horses, ever since I was a little girl. I remember the day I asked my mom for a horse of my own. It was about a year ago. We searched everywhere to find the perfect horse for me. There were so many to choose from but when I saw Beauty for the first time, I knew she was the one. My mom bought her for me and Beauty and I have been inseparable since then.
"Melody, time to eat your breakfast!"
"I'm coming, mom!"
I ran downstairs to find my mom placing some pancakes on my plate. I immediately dug in.
"These are the best! Thanks, mom!"
"Anything for my girl," she replied with a smile.
As soon as I finished, I ran outside to our little stable. Beauty nickered at me as if saying good morning. I rubbed her muzzle softly.
I tacked her up, put on my helmet, mounted her, and began to warm her up. First, I started with a walk, which lead up to a trot, and then a gallop. She was doing great so far.
I set up a couple of jumps and made her go into a canter. I started counting in my head.
3, 2, 1... now!
I leaned forward and we made the jump.
"Good girl, Beauty!"
The next flight of jumps were pretty easy. We made them all.
"I'm so proud of you, girl!"
I really was.
I've always wanted to show-jump with Beauty. It looks fun, maybe a little competitive but I'm sure it would be a great experience.
Maybe someday.
Hey guys! I hope you enjoyed my first chapter. More chapters will be coming your way soon! I love you guys! 💜
