Good morning everyone. May the fourth be with you!

Yes, today is 4th May 2020 - otherwise know as Star Wars Day (your parents will have to explain this to you).

I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I did, as it was my birthday on Saturday! I had a birthday cake, with five candles, and lots of lovely food.

Q: I was born in 1970. How old am I?

Clue: Your family will say,"There's no way Mr Griffin can be that old!"

Morning Prayer

Father in heaven You love me.

You are with me night and day.

I want to love You always,

In all I do and say.

I'll try to please You Father.

Bless me through the day.

Amen
