It’s been a crazy day with the cancellation of the Houston Stock Show. People are upset and disappointed, rightfully so. These families invested time, money, and effort into these animals and I can’t imagine how I would have felt today. I love a show as much as anyone.
But…I just keep thinking about the point of the junior livestock program, which has to be to teach kids about life more so than teaching them about stock shows. In life, like today, they’ll be thrown curve balls. Are we teaching them how to react well?
I hope we will think about it and remember they are watching and learning as we go forward.
