We do a family scripture study with our kids before bedtime. It's been fun (and a little stressful and most nights). Since they are all so little we use the "Stories" books that are illustrated... Ada's soon moving on to reading out of the real scriptures. We've been able to read the Old Testament, New Testament, and Book of Mormon with them this way. Now it's time for the D&C. Sometimes we don't have time for a long study because of busy evenings so we've started reciting Articles of Faith with them on quick nights. Well, 3 year old Sammy pretty much recited the First Article of Faith to us last night with very little prompting from us. It's one of those proud moments that you hope sticks with both of you forever.
"We believe in God the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost."
Not bad for a 3 year old... I hope he really knows what it means and not just the words some day.
