TRUE STORY:
so, ive been teaching the girls scripture put to songs. we usually listen to the cd @ breakfast or lunch & they bebop to it. we have motions for the main one we are working on...psalm 17:8 "keep me as the apple of your eye"...we point to our eye...the other day, listening to the cd zannah points to her eye on cue when we aren't even pointing to our eye! haha. i was like, wow! she's getting this even tho she can't even talk!!! one day last week i was grocery shopping alone with delia and all of the sudden she starts singing "be patient with everyone, zla, blah, zsha, da da. five, teen" and i was like, that's right baby girl! "Be patient with everyone." 1 thessalonians 5 verse 14. :) then today...no music is on and we are close to finishing lunch...suzannah starts to rock in her high chair and sort of grunt the beat of the psalm 17:8 song & points to her eye! she KNOWS the verse even if she can't say it! yay! so sweet! if nothing else good comes from reading the duggar books, then this does! she started teaching her babies Bible verses as young as two...so i decided to try and bought the cd "songs for saplings" off amazon, it is an MP3 download...and it is working! it has a song for each letter of the alphabet and then all of the main Christian holidays and mother's day and father's day and one about the ocean, harvest, and the seasons. i highly recommend this cd. and really, i just don't even know if your baby is ever too young to start filling their minds and hearts with the Word of God. :) we all know what Dog spelled backwards is...God...so we are having the God days of summer in the Wooten house!
this is what makes every single day that seems like it will never end worth it. this is what makes the isolation of motherhood of wee ones worth it!
this is what makes the night time wake ups, the high fevers, the tantrums...worth it!
this is what makes my heart smile and rest and look to the Father and say...i am so so so blessed.
i will take a video when we get a new memory card for our camera. i promise. bc it is too good not to share.
