So excited in fact that he didn't hesitate to catch the bus knowing that his horse Little Miss had just had her baby during the night sometime.
Here's the quick story. After Josi's birthday party Sunday night. We came home and didn't even check Little Miss. She is a horse that we get to keep and the previous owners would like the colt. She was due anytime.
When Wes went to catch the bus the next morning he was surprised to see a tiny colt up the road by the tree. He yelled, "Mom, Little Miss had her colt, see how cute." I said "Yes she did, but where is she?"
Somehow the new colt and first time mom were separated by a fence and a long distance. (She was kept in our pasture behind the barn.) I sent Wes on a few errands for rope and cell phone and then he went to school while I tried to think of something. This little guy was not going to budge from where he was no matter me telling him where I was trying to take him. I realized he was not moving and so went to catch her. After all this I called my friend over who knew so much more about horses and we spent most of the morning reuniting the troublemaker and his mom. They are now in the barn and she keeps him pretty close.
(I promise that is the quick story, you would all laugh at how long I tried and what went on during that morning)
