On Father's Day, Emily was in another horseback riding show. There was a photographer from the local paper there and she zoned right in on Emily. The
Saturday competition was for Special Olympics and sunday was for those with physical challenges only, which is when Emily competed. She won 3- 1st place
ribbons and 1- 2nd place ribbon. To top it off, she won champion of her group. Her group consisted of only 3 kids, but who's counting? Champion means she
scored higher on all events in her group than the others. It was a small competition, but that's just what Emily needed to boost that self-esteem.
Here's a link to the article. Hope it works. She's just in the picture, but the rest of the article was about special olympics. I have to say that the
picture they chose to put in the newspaper was when Emily was getting overheated and very wobbly on her pony, Shamus. http://www.thesentinel.com/350281565479648.php She normally sits up very pretty. Here are a couple
pictures from the event.
