Each morning we have been working really hard to get in family scripture study. It is AMAZING the difference we feel in our life when we faithfully do this and then when we just don't. Usually when we read, we each get two verses. Mike and I do all the long verses and we have the kids do the short ones taking turns over and over, we read a chapter most mornings this way.
This week though we started letting little Olivia read all by herself. WOW. She can read so well!! We are regularly amazed at how many words she can read with out our help. In fact the only ones she needs help with are ones that a lot of adults would struggle with too. She loves the scriptures, each morning she sets her alarm gets dressed and heads to the kitchen before any one else. and just Wednesday mike and I found her opening every ones scriptures to the right page for them, it was such a sweet selfless act. Its just amazing to us as parents. It is so completely rewarding to see our sweet little girl reading the scriptures all by herself, and finding joy in them as she does.
