Misty's September Stardust
Born: September 19, 2007
Sire: Cezanne
Dam: Heat Wave
In the fall of September 2007 Heat Wave surprised everyone with her unexpected and premature delivery of her fourth foal, a palomino pinto filly. Mare and foal spent a week at the local veterinary hospital where the filly received excellent care. The little filly gained her strength so that she would be able to stand and nurse on her own. September Stardust's full name was a collaborative effort from members of the Chincoteatgue Pony Centre. She is called Ember for short. Ember is shorter than her mother and siblings due to her premature birth.
September Stardust has appeared at the Chincoteague Pony Centre and she can be "symbolically" adopted at the Centre, and patrons receive a fact sheet and certificate when they do so. Ember has her own book titled Ember's Story: The Misty Miracle Pony. Ember is pictured alongside other Misty family members in the book Horses in Living Color by Barbara Livingston. She has been trained stand on a stepstool for the pony shows at the Chincoteague Pony Centre. Ember is best friends with Misty III and the two are often together.
