Hotesse: Lovely neighs, everyone! For this week's Family Friday, #1 wanted me to show you these nice pics of me and my two daughters:
I am on the left in the pictures. On the right is my daughter, Violette, born in 2009, and in the middle is my daughter Heloise, my last-born, from 2017. Between 1999 and 2017, I gave birth to 10 foals, four boys and six girls. Three were black and seven grey. My first-born became quite a famous stallion, and he fathered 75 foals! So, I have lots of grandchildren and great-grandchildren I don't even know! Another one of my boys found a good home in Germany thanks to #1, and two of my girls belong to someone #1 knows. One boy and one girl have crossed the Bridge, as has my first-born boy. So that leaves one boy and one girl whose fate we don't know. You know what? That is pretty good going for a horse Mama. Most of us say goodbye and never see our foals again after weaning. I am enjoying my retirement with two of my girls and I am so happy!
Here are the three of us munching hay together:
Thank you for reading my words. It means a lot to me. Here is one more pic of me and my girls:
And back at Poupounette Central, here is a shot of Ollie and Genji hanging together:
that is woderful how much foals came to our world to bring happiness to us... congrats to you and congrats to your famous furst son...
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot of family, Hotesse! I imagine I do too - I have even met a couple of them. They are all nieces, nephews and half-siblings, though, because I was spayed as a kitten.
ReplyDeleteHow nice it is to hear about your family Hotesse :)
ReplyDeleteYou have indeed done well and it is good that you get to live with two of your girls :)
Purrs, Julie
Y'all look so wonderful and we enjoy seeing you, always!
ReplyDeleteYou ladies all look so great together. It's nice to know that your children turned out so well and that you are able to keep in touch with the ones that don't live with you too.
ReplyDeleteHi Hotesse, Violette and Heloise! It is pretty great that you are all together and know where (most) your foals and fillies are! Mom always gets a laugh out of how Ollie sleeps! Thanks so furry much for coming and visiting us. You guys are AWESOME! And we hope you guys have a marvellously fantastic day!
ReplyDeleteIt is nice that you live with your daughters and know where most of the rest of your family is.
ReplyDeleteHotesse, you must be a very strong girl to give birth to so many. You and your daughters are all beautiful.

You sure are one amazing mare, Hotesse! And obviously so are your 'children'!
