One month old today!
It's taken me a while, but I've finally come up with a name for this colt, who turned one month old today. I've decided to name him "Smokin Prince Hamlet", with "Hamlet" being his barn name. Reasons behind this name? Well, I think he is quite charming, and Hamlet was definitely a charming prince so... Plus it's my favourite of Shakespear's plays. He is sooooo cute, but is quite a hand full. Very inquisitive, but guarded as well. Will approach you, but only if he has built some trust with you. I have integrated him and his mom with all of my other horses (except for my new mare), and everyone is getting along quite nicely. Bella has even taken on the role of "Auntie", in that she has kind of taken over the role of second in command. She totally cares for this colt, and sees to it that he is not harmed in anyway. (I think this is her way of telling me that she wants to be a mama soon!)
Roo, (my new mare) is trying to settle in. Tough though it is, she is doing fine, and I hope to have her with the other horses soon. (More to follow)
Until then, Good Evening from Small Wonders.

Pretty Dun Juice The New Addition
I am so happy, and grateful, and honored to own such a wonderful creature as this mare. I just brought her home today, so I'm rather emotional. She's had a lot to deal with in the last week, transitioning from her home in Chicago. Not to mention the fact that I had to trade Maya, in order to get her. Yes, it was hard to do this, and yes I miss her tremendously. But the fact that I know she will be well taken care of allows me to sleep at night. The people that have bought her is going to use her as a brood mare (which means she will make babies for the rest of her life). This actually is a pretty good life for a horse. She will NEVER be in a stall, and she will spend her days eating, and socializing with other mama's and baby's. Not a bad life at all!!!
Good Evening, from Small Wonders
