Timothy and horses

Timothy loves horses.  He doesn't really have much experience with them so far, but he loves to watch them and pet them.  Here is our discussion last night.

Timothy: When I grow up I want to drive one of those things a horse pulls instead of a car.
Us: You mean a carriage?
Timothy: Yes
Us: Why?
Timothy: It will be cheaper.
Us: Shouldn't you learn how to ride a horse?
Timothy: Oh I know how to ride a horse, its the staying on that is the problem.

To which he proceeded to tell us all he knew about how to pull the reigns and how to make them go faster.  I think sometime soon we need to give our boy some hands on experience with a horse.
