Update and gratitude

[kayre]

Haven't updated on Whisper because I was waiting until the kidlet rode twice. Whisper came through the farrier just fine on Monday, and the kid rode her hard Wednesday and today with no ill effects-- to Whisper, at least. Kidlet got thrown today, for the first time in many years. Apparently Whisper got spooked about the demonic cows next door. The kid is fundamentally fine, with predictable scrapes and bruises. Thankfully, she always wears a helmet (which we'll be checking for signs that it hit the ground, but she doesn't think it did).
