Last night was the last night of youth group for this year. Their leader made a special award for each of the kids and the girls were all very pleased with theirs. Through the year there had been a challenge for them to memorize the books of the bible. All of them. BOTH testaments! We had the page on the front of the fridge forever. They all started off trying to do it but Lovey was the only one who persisted and worked on it. She used the books for her spelling words and practiced them every night to get the first half of the Old Testament down. Then she just started practicing saying them over and over and earlier this week she only had the New Testament left and was getting nervous. She buckled down, took the list on the bus to review on the way to school and back. She got her seat mate to quiz her and finally she got them all memorized! There were only 3 kids who succeeded in the challenge and she was the youngest.
She was so pleased with her candy filled trophy! You can see her run through them in the video at the bottom. :)))
