Ah yes. Trying to get into the routine of praying with Arddun before meal times. We used to be so good at it, but somehow that’s fallen by the wayside. I’m also trying to get back in the habit of reading more books with her. We’ve been rather slack, and keep reading the same ones over and over. No wonder she’s getting bored!
One of the things I love about Koorong here is how cheap some of the books are. Managed to score a hardcover Rhyme Bible for >$15! Yes. You read right. It’s bible stories. In rhyme. How groovy is that!
In the spirit of making prayers and bible stories more entertaining engaging for Arddun, I’ve cobbled together a couple of “Ta for the Tucker” prayers.
*ahem*
BREAKFAST
Thank you for my cereal, Lord
And my banana too.
Thank you that we can afford
This special breakfast goo.
LUNCH OR DINNER
Thank you for my food so yum
And thank you for my healthy tum.
I pray as I begin to eat
That I remember to be neat;
Not throw my food right off my chair,
Or make a messy everywhere.
Please bless this home, please bless this meal
And thanks for hearing how I feel.

and what she’s thinking…
Thank you for my food so yum
and thanks for giving so much fun.
Wow it’s such a good fun treat
Cos throwing food is rather neat;
Not just to throw food off my chair,
But be extra messy everywhere.
Mess my chair and stress my mum
oh man, I’m having so much fun!
