Emma had wanted to ride a pony for a long long time but the whole thing is expensive and she had a previous experience when she was five years old that ended up with tears. But she grew older and her friend Clemence was taking classes and we went watching her once in a while. Then, we got a good deal from Chuy's company: they offered some cash back on pony and sailing camps. So I told her: Yes, you can go to pony camp: one full week of pony fun !!!! 
Last night was a different story though ... It all started with a tummy ache. "mooooooooommy, my tummy ache " That's nothing Emma, I replied, you may want to go to the bathroom?" She went and came back crying. "Why are you crying Emma? " "I'm afraid I'm going to throw up !!!!" she said sobbing. [ my daughter has a little phobia with vomiting - we tried to pretend this does not exist but it does ...
] That's when I got smart and used what I learnt from studying psychology for years through women magazines 
: "Emma, you are scared for tomorrow, aren't you? " A little yes came out of her mouth. So I had to go back to basics : "Emma, you were born in Texas and when a child is born there, he becomes an instant cow boy 
: it runs in their blood. 
And don't forget Emma, you're half mexican: that's mean you could even master a donkey ! Ok, you are also half french and french do eat horse meat 
, but let's not little details come our way. Inside you, there is a real 
! I hugged my and told her it will be okay because we can't get a refund so she will have to get on that pony one way or another 
Just kidding ladies 
And I'm happy to report that the did love her day and rode the pony three times! She had fun and is ready for tomorrow 
!!!!!!!

Now, I really want to start a new project but I live with Miss No Fun at home. I asked Emma: "do you think I should start a new project or finish the Lanarte?" She looked at me with a little sorry look on her face and said " the Lanarte!" If kids start to be reasonable, where do we go ...........
