Abby is off school today because the teachers are having a training day, so I decided that between us we would get some jobs done.
Part of our morning conversation went something like this:
Me: What shall we pray about this morning?
Abby: We don't pray in the morning, we pray at bedtime.
Me: Well, today we are going to pray in the morning as well. What shall we pray about?
Abby: We could ask God to help us get our jobs done quickly, then we'll have more time to play.
Me: OK. What can we thank God for?
Abby: We can thank God for our food and our health.
So, I pray a short prayer based on the above. We get changed into some old clothes and start on the jobs. We wash the car, and each other as it turns out! We clean out the rabbit hutch and give them fresh food and water. By now we are wet and dirty, so we decide to go in and get changed before we tackle the next task of tidying the playroom. We also decide it is time for a drink and a snack.
Me: We are getting through the jobs pretty quickly.
Abby: That's definitely God. He is helping us get the jobs done quickly.
Simple as that, then!
