Finally, the baby elephants are here....

While he was doing this in the pond......
and I was playing with my new swim toy....
(when I was a little girl and my family lived in Fla we would go to Cocoa Beach and all the little rich girls had really cool floats just like this and I would show my dad and ask for one for myself and he always said no, I have been in love with those floats all my life!! Now I have one just like the rich kids! Does this mean that I have made it?)

she was born!!



we checked on her prior to going for a swim and not a sign of labor at all....
came back and glanced thru the field and there they were!




The lightest is a doeling with SPOTS!!!!!
The other is a buckling but he sure is handsome too.
He was just born as we found them.
I kept asking Saphira when WHEN WHEN she would show me her little brown spotted baby girls. I knew what they would look like! I just knew!!
I just did NOT know when they were due!
She got so big so early on and this went on for ever and ever that I had finally decided that she was carrying a baby elephant!!!
Whew glad that is over!!
