Bible Readings

I know that often during this time of year, it is so easy to become wrapped up in the commercialism of the season. The gifts, the parties, the gifts. One of the things that I wanted to make sure of is that my girls really GOT what Christmas is all about. Oakley does a great job of helping with the secular part, but I wanted more. So last year I tried having daily Bible readings with the girls. Because of the store's schedule, we don't get to church very often, but I am Christian through and through and I really want my girls to know what a personal relationship with God is like.

I revised the Bible reading this year and it is going much better. We read a story and then Peanut draws something to represent the story. For example, an apple tree for Adam and Eve, an ark with a rainbow over it for Noah. We have just finished up with Moses. Lugnut is too "cool" to participate, but I know she is listening by the way she cocks her head while she is on the computer beside us.

I hope to have similar Bible readings before Easter as well with a different focus.
