hi from canada

hi,my name is karen.i am a 41 year old mother of 2 georgeous boys(6 and 8)and an arabian gelding.i have had my boy for 1.5 years.i found him in maryland and fell in love.we have had many tribulations over the last year or so,but we continue to work together,sometimes taking one step forward,2 back.unfortunately he came from what had to be an abusive situation,,but thankfully his breeder took him back and waited for a good home for him.i am hoping to get advice and direction from this forum to help us along.i am located in newfoundland,canada(the most easterly point in north america)and we don't have alot of trainers here.most of them wonder why the hell anyone would want an arabian anyway.thay just have no idea what these(more specifically this)horse(s) gives back to me.anyway,this is my boy,he is from congressional farm in maryland.he is kaboom out of boomerang-and he is my sanity in my crazy whirlwind life!!!!
