I love that we get to experience so many firsts with our youth…

• one youth who spread out his arms and closed his eyes at the beach and said ā€œI’ve never seen the ocean beforeā€

• serving pancakes, sausage and eggs for dinner… ā€œI’ve never eaten breakfast for dinner beforeā€

• at Wake The World… ā€œThat was my first time on a boatā€

• purchasing school shoes… ā€œI’ve never picked out my own shoes, my mom always bought them for me.ā€

• ā€œYou change the sheets every week? That’s wild.ā€

• petting a pig… ā€œI’ve never touched a pig before, I didn’t know they have hair!ā€

So many experiences, new foods, celebrations, learning opportunities.

Happy Birthday to our awesome, amazing co-owner, program manager, and chef Thom! ā™„ļø He is here every day putting in the hard work, managing things no one else sees or thinks about (well testing, emergency drills, animal care, vehicle upkeep, drywall repair, appliance upkeep, gate maintenance, IT assistance, etc.), he covers staff shifts, he makes amazing meals, he is an absolute expert at de-escalating youth, he is our protector in every setting. Don’t let his occasionally gruff exterior fool you, this man has a tender heart and serves others! We are so incredibly thankful for him.

Mother’s Day can be full of complex emotions for both our youth and their mom’s. While encouraging our youth to heal, forgive, learn, educate, set boundaries…we also stand on the sidelines cheering on every mama who is trying to make progress towards healthier relationships, healing, forgiveness… it’s a process, and we celebrate every win. We also celebrate every youth in this program and are thankful for the mother that brought them life.
