Clippetyclopp, clippety-Pops

On Monday it was time for Poppy's first riding class! Riding is renowned for being particularly beneficial for posture and balance, which is why is an ideal exercise for Poppy, who needs to train her general coordination and increase her strength. 

Led by Ammi, her physiotherapist and Peter, who is present at the session too, Poppy was first a bit overwhelmed when she got to meet her horse. Not so much scared, more emotional and excited, she was in tears for a while, but soon calmed down and started getting the hang of it all. 

Throughout the autumn Pops is thus going to devote her Monday afternoons to riding at Vällingby Ridningscenter, clippetyclopp, clippetyclopp . It makes me so happy that she has access to all this!

So lovely to see the pictures of Poppy on her riding escapade! Pete had told me all about it but it's better to see her too. I gather she enjoyed this week's ride, too. So let's hope she continues to enjoy it and that it helps her co-ordination at the same time. As you say, it's so good that she has this opportunity. Well done, Pops!

Love from Grandma and Grandad xx
