Filly

Aunt Taca had a baby! It is a cute filly with a big white blaze on her face. The lady walked Taca and the foal right by our fence to take them up to the barn and we all ran over to the fence to watch. Some of Taca's older pony kids were calling out to her as they walked by, but Aunt Taca didn't want to talk to them or to have them close to her baby. She made nasty faces and scooted around to make sure the baby was right next to her and didn't go wandering off. They got to spend part of the day in the small paddock up there, while men put noisy hay bales in the top of the barn, and then she got to go back into the barn and the lady gave her lots of hay. She is very lucky to have all that hay and to get to eat the grass in the paddock. Even Ferris and Mak got to run around in the grassy big arena and eat grass there while the men had the hay truck in their paddock. Us ponies got to eat some of the new hay but we didn't get any new grass. The lady came out to see us with that little bossy dog and gave us some carrots, but we had to work for them and give her kisses and stuff. Now the bugs are starting to come out. Those mean nasty little black flies go in our ears and bite them. I hate those flies.
