A Proud Mommy!

My grandfather, Doc, bought Tucker an ABC devotional book for his birthday. We spend 2 nights on each letter and the bible verse and story that goes with it. Last week we were on "F" and they used John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." As I read it with the kids I realized that is the first bible verse I learned as a child and I felt Tucker was ready to learn it for himself. We have continued our book but spend a few extra minutes each night practicing this verse. Last night, he had all but one word. He was so proud of himself that he had to call Doosie and Gramps and say it to them. Of course Rylee has it almost memorized too. Tonight after out devotion and practicing the verse, he felt really good about himself. SO good that he had to call several people to share it with them. Thanks, Megan, Grammy, Nana, Preacher Bud and Connie for listening to him. He was really proud of himself and so was Ry!!!
