Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

I made a simplified/adapted GTD flowchart for my 10-year-old that might be helpful for some of you here :)

GTD = Getting Things Done by David Allen. Next to Stephen Covey's 7 Habits it's my go-to secular source for productivity and practicing holy detachment.

That looks great! I have tired to introduce GTD to my eldest but without much success. The big problem area was getting her to remember her next action list and planner. The thought of not immediately launching into every idea and instead using a someday list was an almost impossible concept. I probably wa trying it too young - I did this last summer when she was 9. I don't think she is any closer to success this summer either... But I haven't bothered to try.

I will have to explore your links from your post and see if they give me any ideas. I think GTD is such a powerful tool and I would love to share it with my kids. I think it would be so useful to use this framework just as a matter of course rather than trying to pound it into my head as an adult!
