A Sandy Hook Mom Talks About
Nurturing Healing Love

6-year-old Jesse Lewis was one of the 26 victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings in Newtown, Connecticut, on December 14, 2012.

His mom Scarlett says just days prior to the tragedy, Jesse wrote three words on his chalkboard at home: “Nurturing. Healing. Love.” We understand these final words as a calling from Jesse that says, ‘I have something for you to do for us. That’s to consciously change an angry thought into a loving one’ because it is a choice," she says.

I had the pleasure and honor of speaking with Scarlett about her son and the cause that bears his name, the Jesse Lewis Choose Love Foundation.
