It’s a Boy!!!
Born sometimes between 11 and 2 in the morning Mother’s day (or the day after)
Sunday night I checked in with Myrnah after I got off the ferry from a weekend working away. She seemed calm and easy. I went home for a few hours sleep and when I returned at two in the morning, there was a happy healthy colt tottering quietly around. Alternating between nursing and exploring the world this colt was secure knowing his mother Myrnah was attentive and completely relaxed.
I spent an hour and half with them in the dark, a quiet observer. Both foal and mare coming over to say hello from time to time. Peace and quiet and an exciting new beginning under the stars.
A few hours home for sleep and then back first thing in the morning to spend time getting to know our new addition.
By mid day, the foal was now 12 hours old and looking stronger and brighter in every moment.
Myrnah is the most amazing mother. More peaceful and loving than any mare I have ever watched with a foal.
The first day out in the world can be exhausting!
A carpet of daisies is a perfect spot for a nap.
Life is good when you have someone shoulder to shoulder with you ready to take on the world.
