Mustang Jack

Well, I'm back. And exhausted.
3 kids. Ages 5, 3 and 18 months. (I was a little misinformed.)
Wow. They're great kids, but man are they ever busy. The oldest is a little girl that literally does not stop talking from the moment she wakes up to the moment she falls asleep. And then the baby screams at the top of her lungs whenever there's something she remotely doesn't like. (For instance, the fact that her mother can't pick her up and I have to do it.) But she came around. The 3 year old is a boy, and his birthday is the day before mine. I'm not sure if he's just easier to get along with, or if I'm just used to dealing with little boys, but he sure seems easier.
I had a lot of fun though, and Shilyn and Pat were much relieved to have me there. It was also nice getting to see Annita & the girls a bunch. Though Annita did say, "It's weird having you in town and not at our house." Hehe.

Went again to see Jack this morning. I guess that now that it's cold in the mornings, we're working at the arena. I'll have to look into how much a membership is so I can ride in there. Jack is being ridden every day now. No bridle yet, but with a saddle and halter. He's doing so well. I was happy to hear Dwayne today, he says Jack really wants to please, he just has to figure out how. That's how I've always though, so it's nice to hear it reaffirmed. So Jack gets to ride to town most days now. Lucky boy. He's starting to get more muscle too. Looking a bit more filled out, which is nice. And he's had all his feet trimmed, and even though they weren't that bad, it makes a huge difference.
