@Arella Mae,
Well about damn time!
So glad they're both doing well!
JJ's a cutie pie.
@Arella Mae,
Well I'm jumping with Joy, hello little girl, welcome to our world.
@Arella Mae,
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH - she's GORGEOUS.... simply gorgeous
ahhhhhhhhhh VERY HAPPY FOR YOU and so glad all went well
JOY's JEWEL - lovely.
YAY!
@Izzie,
Oh she's a treasure.
It's funny, I was meeting other community managers (from other sites) today and they asked, well, what does A2K specialize in? And I said Latin translations, water softening and what to do if you've got a pregnant horse.
How wonderful she is.
@Arella Mae,
mules are cool.
know a cowboy that is rather fond of 'em...
now you gotta start a new thread.
@Arella Mae,
Lookit those gorgeous ears and legs! congratulations gramma Arella Mae!
Good work Miss Joy!
@Arella Mae,
Mules are waay smarter than horses. My neighbor has a brace and I often walk his fields to give em some apples. Some friend of our have 2 and they travel all over riding them over remotte trails . They are indefatigable beasties. and they seem to love to trail ride with their humans.
The legs are an indication that shes gonna be strong one.
Wanna sell it?
@farmerman,
Just read an article about how wonderful mules are -- made me want one:

@Arella Mae,
Hey, congratulations to you, you have a mule! I used to watch a woman on the RFD TV channel who trained mules. She rode dressage, jumped them, drove them. Fun program. Can't think of her name.
EnJOY your new baby.
I took a memorable trip in my late teens, a photo shoot at various ranches and stock yards for an industrial film (the touted product turned out to be icky, but this was in the late fifties and we didn't know). Anyway, I have a memory of liking one very well regarded mule.. that affected my take on mules ever after. I can't remember why it was so well regarded, if it were a ranch pet or work mule, or was in a stockyard as a long time resident for some reason. Now I'm sorry I didn't take a photo.
@sozobe,
I'll see if I still have that issue, Soz, thanks for the heads up. I have to watch out not to become a NYer packrat.
She's a mule!!! Oh she is soooooooo cute!! Congratulations!! She will be so much fun. I have visited some mules in my time and they are very clever.
Thank all of you so much! I am going to start training her to do tricks when she is old enough. I am so happy!
Was anyone able to see that video? I think I uploaded it correctly but ya never know.
@Arella Mae,
I couldn't see it until I opted for some extra stuff and I didn't want to go there.
Can you put it on youtube?
