C and O were baptized this summer while we were back visiting MN. O received a children’s bible as a gift. I thought it would be a great idea for us to finally start going to Sunday school and reading a bible story each night before bed. A seems to be paying fairly good attention to the stories each night, but I wasn’t sure what O was learning until a night two weeks ago when A was sick and already asleep. O and I read the story together, and said our prayer together and I told her we were all done. She looks at me and says, “Ok mommy, I’ll read one to you”. O: “God saved the people from the mean people in the castle. Then the people crossed the sea. Then they all lived happily ever after”. Sounds about right.
Sometimes it amazes me what our children take-in without us even realizing it! I love O's summary of the story of the Israelites. It does sound about right; she can get the details later.
