Surprises!

One of the best way to teach kids about the joy of service is to be an example. One thing my siblings and I did as children was to clean something, weed the garden or make something when my parents left. I know realize how my Mom taught us to do this. Almost every day we do something to get ready for Daddy to come home and "surprise" him. Usually it's just washing the dishes, making dinner, mowing the lawn or even making our beds. By letting the kids help me to surprise Daddy you're learning to surprise me too. We also like to come up with a surprise for Ksenya when she gets home from school. This is a great way to find joy in serving others!
