The Dump Truck Story

The Dump Truck Story What happens when we normalize ‘disaster’ thinking and accept the mess by Alicia Diaz-David When my son was two years old, he scribbled on his dump truck with a brown marker and announced that he would wash it right there in the middle of our living room floor.
