Don’t You think Mary should be helping me? Tell Mary to help me.” Jesus said, “Martha, do not worry about what needs to be done. Mary is listening to Me, and that is very important.” Jesus loved His friends Martha and Mary. They loved Jesus, too. Parents: • Remind your preschooler how he can do some things like Jesus. When you see your child showing love to a friend, comment: “You love your friends, just as Jesus did.” • To the tune “London Bridge,” sing: “I can do what Jesus did, Jesus did, Jesus did. I can do what Jesus did: Love my friends.”
