Valerie is my niece, and while not a horse, she is definitely inspiring!
I have had the pleasure of giving Valerie riding lessons. She is smart, coordinated, and very enthusiastic. Watching her I remember just how I felt when I was learning to ride.

Here are some photos of Valerie and her friends at Rainbow's End Riding Academy:
