What a sweet picture! I'm glad to hear things are going good.
As far as your horse bolting when you try to get up on her, maybe her back is out. One time my daugther went to get on her horse, she reared up and went over backward. Luckily she wasn't hurt, so she got up and tried to get on again, and once again the horse tried to rear up. This wasn't normal behavior for this horse, so she took off her saddle, ran her fingers down the horses spine and found she was very touchy in several parts of her back. We had the equine chiropractor out and he worked wonders. A poor fitting saddle may cause her to be sore also. Your mare may just be trying to tell you that she hurts. Hope things go well with you and Sweetheart.

, and scolded every time she wanted to run away , by scolding i mean firmly saying no and then reassureing her i wouldnt hurt her in the end there was great improvement she would let me hold my knee agaisnt her and move it about, one side seems more sensitive , her outside -side she will barely flich when i raise my knew the inside she wants to bolt so we will keep working on it 
Thanks for posting, she sure is a nice looking mare. It sounds like it's finally all going in the right direction with you two now. That great. It looks like she's giving you kisses, how sweet.
