A new edition??


Contemplating the outcome of the latest breeding of a Cleveland Bay to my Thoroughbred mare, I thought "If it is a boy, I will sell; if a girl, I will keep it and love it and raise it as my own." Hubby was not impressed, conjuring visions of the equine equivalent of diaper changes and late night awakenings...will I have to repsond to the filly's emotional or other needs, in the middle of the night, in my bathrobe? One thing is certain...He, Hubby that is, won't be getting up, unless to be entertained by the specter of my robed equine surrogate maternity.
