There was no talking me into it. I love horses and can't even picture my life without them. When my mom told me about the competition I was so excited. She told me not to get to excited because she didn't think my dad would agree. You can't even imagine my surprise when dad suggested getting more than 1. I must admit, all of us have learned so much about horses since I started this project. Like I said, my parents are super supportive and help me whenever I need an extra hand, which is almost every night.
For all of you who feel like I do; like you are so far behind, my mom tells me not to worry about it. The reason I'm doing this is for the horse, yes placing would be great, but getting these horses to good homes is the real reason I'm here. And I know that what I have done will get these horses the homes they deserve. And what all of us have accomplished up to this point is awesome.
