Nathan has been reading Brandon's Bible to him for a while now. We tried reading it to him when he was younger but he just wanted to try and tear the pages or do whatever. Now he will sit and listen (as much as an 18-month will) and act interested.
It's a nightly ritual for Nathan and Brandon to read before bedtime. Lately, Brandon wants to read his Bible all the time. He will say, "Chee-sus" (Jesus) or "teet-teet" (tweet-tweet for bird) and point to the shelf where is Bible is held. By the way, I don't know why a "teet-teet" is significant! Nathan pointed to a bird in there one night and for some reason that is how he lets us know he wants to read his Bible! =)
Tonight, Nathan said, "Let's read your Bible and go night-night." Brandon ran to the couch where they sit and waited for Nathan to get the Bible and come read to him. He had a huge grin on his face and he was so excited.
What if we all that same excitement for God's Word?
