Charity Horse Rides

One of Kai’s preschool teachers organized pony rides for charity a few weeks back.  Her family has been doing charity work in Ethiopia/Eritrea for generations.  The offered pony rides, sold cookies in horse shapes (we had to leave with two of those, as you can imagine) and sold hand woven baskets from Ethiopia to raise money. 

Nora, having not seen too many horses in her life, exclaimed excitedly “CAM–OO” (translation: camel) when we got there.  It took a fair bit of practice, but by the end she seems to have understood that she actually rode a horse.
