Dreamer walked slowly into the Foaling Meadow so that her little colt wouldn't have to try too hard to keep up with her. Also to keep herself from getting into too much pain. It was only an hour ago that she had endured his long harsh birth and still the pain lingered. His little head bobbed up and down as he trotted in front of her.
He was Dreamers first foal so she was intent on keeping her closest eye on his well being. His spunky nature showed as he trotted ahead of her. He had stopped to look to see if she was still in viewing sight. "Mama are you okay?" he asked as he looked at Dreamer. She knew he could see that she was still in pain. Looking back at him Dreamer smiled to him sweetly. "I am fine baby boy!" she told him reassuringly. "Mama's in a bit of pain that is all!" He resumed trotting around. Dreamer knew he wouldn't go to far because she had lectured him a while ago when he decided it would be fun to give her a small heart attack.
Dreamer began looking around the large meadow. She was the first mare in this place and it wasn't hard to tell. For the grass was up to her forearm. It was a little hard to keep an eye on her colt in these type of conditions. Dreamer looked up from looking at the grass to looking at her colt. "Secretariat Junior! Come to Mama please!" she whinnied out to him. He stopped playing with a stick and cantered over to her stumbling a bit on the way. Stopping in front of her Dreamer nuzzled him. "Thank you!" she said to him in a sweet voice.
Feeling hungry she pushed him over to her rear and coaxed her colt to suckle. Secretariat did as she wanted. While he suckled she began to eat the grass. Dreamer keeping herself aware of her surroundings at the same time.
