Neka je blagosloven taj agiasmos. Lepo je što je vladika Nektarios posebno zahvalio kuvarici, to me uvek obraduje jer znam koliko posla ima sa decom. Moje devojčice su išle u sličan vrtić, pa znam da ta ljubav koju spominje stvarno ostaje.

It's good they thanked the cook along with everyone else. Those little ones go through a lot of food in a day, and it all adds up. My niece went to a church nursery like that back home and still talks about how the staff made her feel safe.

Da, baš si u pravu, kuvarica radi najteži deo a retko je ko pomene. Kod nas u Podgorici u parohijskom vrtiću isto je bilo, sećam se kako je baka Stana mesila i kuvana svaki dan za dvadesetak dece. A ti si rekla da su ti devojčice išle u sličan – kako su se snašle posle, kad su krenule u školu?

Da, baš je lepo što je pomenuo i magiricu, to pokazuje da vidi sav taj svakodnevni trud. Kod nas u podgoričkom parohijskom vrtiću isto su uvek hvalili one što peru sudove i spremaju, a ne samo učiteljice. Jesu li ti devojčice posle u školi lakše prihvatile molitvu i post, pošto su odmalena navikle?
