Mary Belle and Dad

When Liberty was bred the first time, she lost the foal very early.  The second time around, Courtney hoped to stimulate her hormones by putting her in a pasture with baby Sophie.  It may have worked, because she did get very attached to Sophie and did carry the second pregnancy to term.

Even though we sold Liberty to Courtney in 2009, she, eternally generous, let's us pretend we still own her and encourages Micah to ride her whenever she's home.  On this occasion, we took Liberty out of the pasture she shared with Sophie and she was whinnying for her.  Of course, she wouldn't do it for the camera, even though I cruelly tried to provoke her into it.  But, she's such a beautiful girl, she's going on the blog.
