I hope. I usually lock with the key. I kept the 2 year old today though. She throws stuff away. I need my books like now though.
Your garden is very pretty. I’m wondering what you are doing with that horse though:’)

Oh, OK, I was going to tell what I’m doing with the garden is Miracle Grow:)

What I’m doing with the horse is lunging him, but getting him to turn with body language. It’s something I learned at the Clinton Anderson Clinic I went to, and it really really works:). He’s lunging and turning so much better now. I don’t have to reel him in now to get him to turn.

I just squat , stare at his hip, and he turns, then I stand step quickly to the other side squat and stare at his other hip, and point with my hand the direction i want him to go, and he goes. If I just want him to stop and come to me, after he has turned to face me before sending him off the other way, just stand straight, and don’t look at him and he comes right in. It’s really cool.

If you can ever catch CA doing it on his show on TV, he’s a lot smoother then I am.

With 2yr olds around, you DEFINATELY need to keep several spare keys to everything.
