Perfection Is.....?


I have to say that there is something perfect about waking up on Saturday morning (lol I know I say that about Sunday too!) knowing that you dont have to get into panic work mode ("what the hell am I going to wear? Jeans.... and .... !!), you know that the next two days are your own to do the things that make you happy.

For me, this morning was spent out with the girls and their foals, just being there, getting reaquainted with them; spending some time with Pip and her beautiful Conatus boy, Harry. What a treasure he is, just friendly, outgoing and a real pleasure to handle. I have to say that all these traits are typical of what dear old dad is passing down the line to his kids.

Bessie Merle continues to taunt us with her impending whelping and has been seen trying to get into the walk ins to build her nest.... I did spend some wonderful time with her this morning out on the verandah in the sun, having a cup of coffee and resting my hand on her tummy - what an experience that is... I can assure that there is something alive in there... the question that we are both asking is HOW MANY !!!??? (AAAAArgh!!!). You cant buy any experience like that anywhere. I am very blessed to have lived it with the horses and now with Bess.

Im sitting here in the study watching the two boys (Kenny Kinjite and Jimmy) in their heavily green paddock. Its just started to shower lightly and they have both taken off as if someone has lighted a match under them. Wow, what an awesome sight.

At the moment I have Pikey man to the left of me and Bessie Merle and her huge tummy to the right. Bailey is guarding the door in the corridor. Evan is outside in the loungeroom enjoying a Crownie or four watching the races (after coming in from feeding up).

God I love the weekend.

Helen. :)


The very energetic Miss Trixie

Miss Trixie and her mum, Joie

I love this photo - Miss Pip (Epiphany) loves her boy very much and is a beautiful mum. The older girls certainly have it on the young ones.


What's in here mum?
