2022 Sowing Generously
The tragedy that took place Monday, May 24th in Uvalde, Texas has had global impact. Nineteen children, and two adults were senselessly gunned down by an 18 year old (who was also a casualty) the day before this picture was taken. It was after Tuesday that age old wisdom struck me recently.
On Tuesday, a group of young families, children, parents, grandparents and teachers came to Peace Ranch to celebrate and support sensory learning in young kids with development delays. Why? Because, sowing healthy seeds in their lives now will produce a significant harvest in their future.
Many of the parents shared special things about what happened for them. At Peace Ranch they felt safe, judgement free, relaxed, and were able to enjoy engaging with their children. Some kids had never been with other kids. Others had never been on grass. The staff was deeply touched seeing their student’s vitality, exploring, smiling, and playing- like other kids.
No one imagines tragedy like what happened on May 24th and hind sight IS 2020— apparently no one responded to the cries of this troubled teen, who was a little boy once.
