      It occurred to me that Geertje is in the stall that Reintje was usually in, and I wondered, was Geertje also born in that stall? If so, then Reintje learned her mothering skills and Geertje learned to walk and nurse there, and the cycle is now repeating with a new generation. I did a quick search, but I couldn't find a video of Geertje's birth, so I guess we'll never know. It's not really important, but I thought it was an interesting thought.

      Same it's a shame that mothers day service at church is not more widely attended. My pastor always has a special sermon and breaks from the sermon series about the mothers in the Bible. This year was moses' mother and how little time she had to instill in him the ways of his people before he went to the Pharaoh's daughter. There were a bunch of families not there as brunch was likely more important to them.

    Wouter Rein is adorable! So happy he arrived healthy & that Geertje expelled her afterbirth independently. Learning to be a mother takes time. They both seemed to be hungry which was a very good sign. Rein, Sr. is very experienced breeder & made sure all was well with mem & foal. Funny - Granddam Reintje’s foals always liked to walk under her tummy too! 😊❤

    I find it hilarious how different foals have different strategies to getting up. Some careful and thought through, first one leg, then the second, then the third, then the thinking how to get the fourth up. And Wouter is just here like "If I just use a bit more momentum I'm sure it'll work!" aaand flop.
