		<description>"I made it over all the jumps. Even one where I thought she was hesitating over the first time. I kicked her and made her do it. So that was good."

That makes me want to use these icons:   :cheer :bounce :D :DD
In the time I've known you and seen you ride, confidence has allways seemed to be your stumbling block.  

I don't know if you remember the day when you, Meredith and I were in the pond pasture jumping stuff a million years ago.  I'm 99% sure you were riding Missy and she stopped three times at one fence.  From a spectator's view, it was painfully obvious that you were freezing up and Missy was saying, "well, if you're not gonna make me, I'm not gonna do it!"  I think the fourth time to the fence you gave her just enough that she popped over it.  Each time you came over that fence after that, you could see your confidence building and Missy's willingness increasing.

So yippee for you. :cheer
