I can see her now teaching all her little animals the verse ( input sinister mom laugh here!)<BR/><BR/>She has to learn 10 verses and read 127 chapters of the Bible in the next 4 weeks YIKES!<BR/>Talk about your parent pressure!!!Sabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17717308620646458800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9246360.post-1160065305610400562006-10-06T00:21:00.000+08:002006-10-06T00:21:00.000+08:00This same "struggle" happens while teaching school...This same "struggle" happens while teaching school.

Of course, none of her stuffed animals have names yet besides Doggie, Bunny, Bear, etc., but she'd enjoy the learning process a whole lot more that way. Yes, it is a privilege to raise these little ones!!! :)Dennis and Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09612373406933060997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9246360.post-1160004218627148852006-10-05T07:23:00.000+08:002006-10-05T07:23:00.000+08:00This is the technique that I used to teach you ver...This is the technique that I used to teach you verses at that age. Seat Pot Belly and Foxy and you and me in a circle. Have each one say the verse or part of the verse. Of course, I am Pot Belly and Foxy's voice for the first little while, but gradually you helped me out and the "4" of us got the verse learned. That doesn't address the pride issue, but that is something I struggled with all the while in rearing you kids. As I was aware of it, I would have to give it to God. There is really nothing we can claim for our glory. Even our kids can't claim their abilities and brains for themselves. Isn't it special that the Lord entrusts us with the precious little ones that He wants in His family? MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
