OMG! 75 faves?! Thanks so much guys, you're the best!

IT'S DONE! IT'S DONE! This is the best picture I've ever drawn! I've been working on it for over a month (44 days to be exact XD), but it was on and off, but for the last week or so I've really been working hard to finish it And here it is! I'm so proud of this, I did everything by hand (using only the default brushes on Photoshop), and I think it's one of my best bg's yet, even though it's simple And once again, I have to give EXTREME thanks to *EscyKane and =SageSinRiddle for allowing me to lease Behind My Pokerface and Athan Ambar!!! This is probably going to be the best foal NHS has ever had I can't WAIT till I can start showing him

Story (Long alert! XD)
It had been nearly 17 months of excruciating waiting, but finally the day had come. NHS’s first foal of the year was about to arrive. NHS hadn’t had a foal since the spring of the previous year, so this particular baby was especially exciting; not to mention his spectacular bloodlines. As September dawned, NHS had withdrawn a bit from competitions to prepare for the serious fall/winter show season, so things had fallen into a slow, regular pace. The school horses were getting numerous days off after the hectic 3 months of summer camp, and the boarders just starting to begin training for the upcoming show reason. The staff had even began practicing a few more tranquil habits, such as sleeping in later, but today, that definitely wasn’t going to happen. Kianah woke up at 6:00 in the morning to check to make sure everything was in order for the 6-month old colt’s arrival. All of the stall were immaculate, every single water bucket was filled, everything was in it’s correct place, and there wasn’t a single piece of hay dirtying the aisle. Kianah smiled; for a such a quaint, antique-looking stable, NHS looked pretty nice. At 7, the rest of the staff emerged and began grooming horses, then, at 8:00 sharp, Kianah heard the crunching of the gravel driveway and turned to see the Elbdale Stables trailer pulling up. She shifted her weight from one foot to another, barely able to contain her excitement. David Greenmore himself, the owner of Elbdale Stables, had come to deliver the colt. He stepped out of the car and greeted the NHS staff before making his way to the back of the trailer and opening it up to reveal an equine who was easily one of the most magnificent young horses Kianah had ever seen. She had met him before soon after he was born, but he had undergone a huge transformation from the time he wasn’t even 6 days old to nearly 6 months old.
“I trust you remember Ben?” David prompted as he unloaded the stunning weanling. Ben pricked his fuzzy ears towards Kianah and nickered softly in faint recognition. Kianah nodded enthusiastically and approached the little colt, holding her hand out so he could sniff her hand. Ben nibbled Kianah’s fingers gently and she laughed, rubbing his silky forehead. She couldn’t believe that this amazing little colt was hers.
“He’s... wow,” she murmured and she continued to stroke Ben’s mahogany and white face.
“Yeah, he’s something else,” David agreed, giving the youngster a pat himself. “He’s a little shy towards people he doesn’t know, but he’s really sweet and loves to please.”
“He sounds like my kind of horse,” Kianah said. “I’m really looking forward to working with him.”
“Glad to hear that,” David replied with a smile.
Kianah showed David around the barn, pointing out Ben’s stall and the quarantine paddock he would stay in until he was used to the other horses. Finally, it was time for David to go and leave the little colt to his new life. Kianah and let Ben into his paddock so he could start to acclimate himself with his new environment before going with David back out to his truck so she could see him off. Once they were at the truck, David turned to Kianah. “Take good care of him, and don’t be afraid to give me a call if you have any questions,” he told her.
“I definitely will,” Kianah assured him, waving as David climbed back into his truck and began the drive back to Elbdale.
