One evening this week I had a meeting and couldn’t get out to feed our two old sweeties.
When Rick came home he told me there was a new little face in the barn.
A colt that looked a lot like Bud when he was a baby.
That means a little spotted rump.
And long spindly legs that just don’t seem to work all that well.
And bright eyes.
And a soft little nose.
Of course the next day I had to meet this little guy.
When we peeked into the stall he was stretched out beside his mama, taking a nap until we disturbed him. Then he popped up to greet us and have a little snack.
Mama looked tired.
If she could talk I suspect she would have given us a piece of her mind for waking her baby.
She’d been in confined quarters for a week with this little bundle of curiosity and energy.
Clearly, Mama could use a spa day.
We inadvertently violated a cardinal rule of parenting – horse or human:
Never wake a sleeping baby.
So sorry mama!
But what a little doll.
