Charlie

This is Charlie, he is Belle's son. He was born June 24th, 2008. His birth story is actually quite hilarious. When I met Belle, her belly was extremely huge, in fact, she looked dangerously overweight. I was willing to work her out because she was perfect. A week or so later, I get two urgent emails from the former owner saying "Major news!!! Call when you get this!" At first I thought she like died from being too fat, but I called him and I said what's going on? And he said "Well I went to go check on the horses this morning and instead of three horses on the property there were four. All I could see were his white feet, but he is here and he's perfectly healthy. Now you get two horses for the price of one." He and his wife were very reluctant to give him up, and I don't blame them. He is awesome. I have had several casualties with him though. One would be about three weeks ago when I was brushing him and his mom. I was spraying his mom with sheen and I dropped the brush out of my hand accidentally. I bent down and got it the same time he was sniffing it. I guess I scared him because he flipped his head up really quick and hit me right between the eyes. Then I remember seeing them and rolling under the fence so they wouldn't hurt me even more, and then I went unconscious. I suffered a minor concussion, but that's it thank heavens. But I didn't feel good for like a week after that. I still have the bump, but luckily I don't have my double black eyes anymore. The next would be about two weeks ago when I was out there petting them and he knew I was still afraid of him so he took advantage of that. I was cowaring, which is the worst thing to do, but he came up and bit me really hard on my left arm. Then I had this big ugly bruise that I still have a bit. It was horrible, but that's what you get for being afraid of a baby horse.
