My first pony, Little Man 12/12/2017 11:18:46 AM
Did you ever wish for a pony? Here's a story about my first pony, Little Man. When you were little did you dream of owning a pony? I loved ponies, but luckily for me, I grew up at a riding school in Connecticut.
Thinking of my first pony makes me smile. His name was Little Man. He was brown and fuzzy, but quite naughty. Little Man was a calm, lazy fellow. On the bright side, I never had to worry that he’d get excited and gallop away. He did have one odd habit though. He liked to sleep when I was riding him. He’d lie down with me on his back. But finally, I learned to watch out when he started walking slower and slower. Then I’d give him a kick to make him keep walking; problem solved.
I used to think Little Man would be on his best behavior if I gave him a sugar cube before I rode. Guess what? It didn't help.
