As the meeting progressed, the public power supply went off, after a while the
inverter went off too and
I was in partial darkness with sparse lighting from the window close by.
My ever loving 3-year-old, ran through the hallway and saw me seated in the
dark area with a laptop and
Ear plug on; then the following conversation below ensued:Seddie: Mummy, it is dark in here?
Mummy: I know
Seddie: What are u doing?
Mummy: I am in a meeting
Seddie: Okay! Come sit at the anteroom, there is light
there (it is usually brighter there)
Mummy: Okay my love
Mummy: I know
Seddie: What are u doing?
Mummy: I am in a meeting
Seddie: Okay! Come sit at the anteroom, there is light
there (it is usually brighter there)
Mummy: Okay my love

Every time he asks for a drink or snack, I can guess what sentence will follow
– “Mummy, can I get some for my sisters”.
Not to mention every time I serve his meal, he will ask for his sisters’
portions.
In this season, I have also come to recognise the values and virtue my paid
assistance has instilled in my kids and I am so thankful to God for the gift of her.
This further confirms my conviction that we all need ‘godly
helps’ or a ‘community of godly helps’
in raising

in raising
our children. Community here
entails more than one person; most people are blessed to have members of their
extended family contributing to
their children’s upbringing.

May God always send us ‘godly help’ when we ask.So today, I am grateful for the gift of thoughtful and considerate kids, who at
