One of my favorite times of the day is when we put the kids to bed, and no its really not because they are going to sleep. They are sharing a room now so when Michael is home we put both kids down to bed together. Our routine usually goes something like this. He reads the kids a book while I get Madeline some milk and Rivers a bottle. Then we read a story out of the Big Picture Storybook Bible (aka... the "B-I-" as Madeline calls it from the little childrens' song that spells out BIBLE). We have found that using this book has helped us start teaching Madeline some basic truths about the Bible. Even at such a young age she loves reading it and loves to point out new things she is learning like "the temple." We then pray and rock the kids as we sing a hymn. One of Maddie's favorites has become "Jesus Loves Me". I caught it on film tonight and thought y'all might enjoy hearing her sweet voice sing it (ignore mine in the background). It brings joy to our hearts hearing our little girl learning and singing such a sweet truth!
Here are some of my favorite pictures that I haven't posted yet since my batteries ran out!
