The Scriptures

Every morning around these parts we do a little of this together:

But it usually looks more like this: 

and this:

 

But everyone is required to read aloud just one verse,

(Porter's is said quietly to him and he repeats it louder)

Yes, it's hard sometimes. Especially when we're running around, trying to get everyone and everything ready for school before we have to be out-the-door at 7:27 (oh yes, I have it timed out exactly).


But it is so worth it. I feel like my kiddos are sent out into this world a bit more prepared, a bit more protected.

Plus, I love hearing Porter retell the story of Nephi relieving Laban of his head.

Where is little Tank while we're doing this?  Usually rolling around on the floor playing in his lil' toy basket.

And yes, I made my kids pose for these after we read on Saturday :)
