Mother's day

Hope you've all had a lovely Mother's Day. Thought I'd share a pic of a new mother spotted along the drive to work. I pass at least four new foals (that's the right word, isn't it?) on my drive in the morning, but on my way home, when I have time to stop, the horses aren't out to pose for photos. I snapped this during a quick drive by yesterday; not the pic I wanted, but you get the idea of just how adorable they are.

Foal is the right word and the photo is lovely. Really lovely. Thank you for sharing it.

Thanks for this, Laura. I hope you had a good day, too. Mothers are nurturers...and that's what you are.

I agree with Mary--I love the fuzziness of new foals.

Awww......
All baby horses are foals. Boy foals are colts, and girl foals are fillies.

Not that you asked for all that.
