Ahmed Fabo SBE Daughter in Belgium!
Welcome to the Beautiful Bouncing Belgian Baby Babson Bint!

We are celebrating with the Bo DeCort family in Belgium the birth of a very special Straight Babson Egyptian filly on June 9, 2010. They are planning to name her Asmaa Fa Bar. Asmaa means "first." May she be only the first of many more fabulous fillies for them!

		Her mom, Josh Tali Barakah, came to us early last May to be bred to our Babson Dressage Champion Ahmed Fabo before catching a flight last fall across the Atlantic enroute to her eagerly awaiting new home in Belgium.

A Star Shines on in our Hearts

A Native American song tells us ...to the starry cluster beaming, in the blue of midnight skies ancients say a star is added, when a good woman dies...

		The Arabian horse, the Sheykh Obeyd Arabian and those who love them have lost a dear friend and fierce defender. Julia Byfield crossed her great Rainbow Bridge on October 11, 2008. She is greatly missed. The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears. Native American proverb
