Family Scripture Study

As members of the LDS faith we are encouraged to hold daily scripture study with our families. We have been making a more concerted effort to accomplish this recently which isn't the easiest thing to do with a 6 month old and a 2 year old. We usually say a prayer, read a few verses, remind the 2 year old to listen, and sometimes we sing a song. It's not long and I've been surprised that most of the time, even though we don't read for very long at all, I feel a pleasant spirit inside about the experience, and happy that we did it. And even though I think over time this will be valuable for both our girls I didn't think it was making much of a difference yet. However, the other day Belen was "helping" me in the kitchen and talking happily. At one point she said, "And it came to pass...there was a Jesus". I couldn't wait to tell Holden when he got home that our efforts were not in vain! She may not be visibly listening too much yet, but I think having an understanding that "there was a Jesus" is a good start :)
