Camila, as the filly is called, is about to have her first foal and is an important member of the family. So they spared no expense in her celebration. When the family is united, the arrival of a baby is great news for everyone. It doesn’t matter if the member is human or not, it is simply the affection we have for him or her that counts. That is why it is celebrated and one way to do it is with the baby shower, which is usually held before the arrival of the future offspring.
In Mexico, specifically in Yucatan, a family decided to throw a nice party for their mare Camila, who is about to have her first foal. As if she were a human, they set up a table full of candy and balloons, alluding to the baby shower. Meanwhile, all the members of the household and other guests took pictures with the filly who is about to become a mother.
To tell the truth, it was a very beautiful and inspiring event, and for her party the filly wore a beautiful hairstyle and was adorned from head to toe with flowers and pink ribbons. She probably didn’t fully understand what was going on, but from the amount of pampering she received, it must have been clear to her that it was all about her. Through Facebook, user Erika Couoh, thanked everyone who helped organize the event and those who attended. She made it clear how important Camila is, to everyone in her family and how happy they are to celebrate her having a foal.
“I know you are not a human but I love you as if you were, you are our daughter. I also know there will be people who will tell me I’m crazy for throwing you a baby shower, but I don’t care because I know you enjoyed it as much as we did. Your look doesn’t deceive and I bet if you talked you would tell me how happy you are and were today.” -Erika Couoh wrote about her mare on Facebook.
It was certainly a wonderful occasion for everyone in the family, it was all about waiting for a new living thing that will brighten their lives and run around the countryside, showing everyone the wonder of being free. It is amazing that they can treat their mare that way and not just see her as someone they work with. We congratulate Camila and hope that her delivery goes very smoothly, that her motherhood is wonderful and that she can continue to enjoy the love of those around her.
