Sarah Finished The Book of Mormon


Last Tuesday, Sarah finished her first read through The Book of Mormon. We started sometime when she was two or so and we would read about 5 verses a day and then summarize them in terms she could understand and hopefully give some kind of brief application of whatever principle was discussed. We took some pics but none of them turned out all that great. She got to stay up that night and called Oma and Opa to tell them the news and then she got to have ice-cream before bed. We're pretty proud of her. She probably didn't get that much out of the daily "study" (other than the ritualistic back-scratching that accompanies the reading), but it is definitely something that is a routine for her and that she remembers we need to do each night. Maybe that's the point. Great Job Sarah!

Tim and I remembered how you guys incorporated the Book of Mormon as part of Sarah's routine early in her life. What a great influence you are - we've been reading a few verses each night before we pray together as part of her bedtime routine. What a great blessing for our family. Thanks for your example!
