For Christmas we got Bryton a kids Bible (well, book of Bible stories), and he likes it, but the stories can be a little long for a 2 year old's attention span. (Although, he refers to it as his "Jesus book," and I won't lie, I love hearing him walk around with it referring to it as such. It is all about Jesus.)
While shopping in the Christian bookstore the other day I came across this:
and I started thumbing through it. Like an adults devotion book (ok, I'm not a fan of these one liner devotion books for mature Christian adults, but come on, our audience here is a 2 year old :) there's a scripture and an explanation for all of the days of the year. They are one page long and there's a two line little poem at the bottom. Perfect for two year old attention spans!
So I'm thinking - every night before Ansley goes to bed, we may sit around with this here book (which I, of course, didn't purchase at the bookstore for $15, but rather on Amazon for $11.95 with free shipping :), and make it part of our bedtime routine! I'm excited about it and am praying God uses it to turn the hearts of our babies towards Him!
On another note - Aaron and I are restarting our devotion time together. Time is just so hard to come by, but we could all use this time together, not just individually!
Go ahead, I need the accountability, check up with me on this!

I definitely need to check this out for my Littles! Q has been memorizing some scripture, but this sounds like a great way to incorporate some Bible stories! Thanks for the recommendation!
