what a wonderful collaboration between the library and local seed organizations
once again showing how important a library is to a community
“inside every seed is the potential for an incredible harvest.”

as we watched
the big kids perform
‘a christmas carol’
the kinder
kept whispering
and asking
‘why is that man so mean?’
‘why is he so crabby?’
‘how can he be that mean?’
I told them that later in the play
mr. scrooge’s heart will grow
and he will learn to be nice
just like what happened to the grinch
it made my own heart grow
to think about
their innocence
their naturally kind and compassionate state of being
how they could not even begin to imagine
why someone would choose to be mean.
