Once Secret is tacked up, no thanks to Ethan, Dakota swings up and holds Ethan between her and the pommel, one hand on her son, the other on the reins

Elijah finishes lundging Whisper

Ethan giggled as Dakota asked for Secret to walk, rocking them softly side to side as they walked around the barn and pasture

Elijah then watched Toby steal Whisper's food again when he returned Whisper to his stall. Whisper snorted, nipping Toby. Toby managed to steal a bit more before retreating his head back over to his side of the fence

Dakota brought Secret back and untacked. "Love, can you come take Ethan?" She asked as he pulled on Secret's mane while Dakota was trying to undo the girth

Elijah nods, coming over to pick Ethan up from her arms. He walked him over to Toby, who lowered his head to him

Dakota finished untacking the mare and put a cooler on her before putting Secret to bed and feeding all three horses. "Ready to go, love?" She asked, picking off bits of hay

Elijah nods, walking into the house with Ethan.

Dakota sits down on the couch, exhausted. "What do you want for dinner?" She asks Elijah

Elijah shrugs, "Pasta?"
