For the last few weeks Sandy has been teaching the boys how to touch things gently. This gentle-touching project developed after they learned to climb furniture and began yanking the house plants now in their reach. She showed them that they could tough things if they did it gently. This newly developed tender-touch was used generously when we visited the petting zoo at the Bar-B-Q Festival. Both boys were very respectful of the animals, approaching slowly and petting gently. We caressed a calf, burro, rabbit, miniature horse, goat, pot-bellied pig, sheep, rooster, and several puppies without one complaint.
