it is 0430 in the morning, and we just got a foal. A new born life says hello to this world. A Trakehner mare, a baby girl, just what I had hoped for, a new base for my breeding future, all perfect, all healthy so far, a little black miracle in golden straw, the mother mare all healthy too -- and the birds in the forests around just began their early morning songs as we welcomed the new life to this earth..... sometimes, rarely, in the middle of all our human problems and worries, nature brings back the wonder and miracle of life, simple and yet so incredible. It is the 58th foal being born here in my presence, and it always feels as pure as the first one Welcome, little Ayrin, happy birthday, my little foal
