Psalm 23

I love the idea of speaking scripture into our children and have been working very consciously with Logan to do that since she was tiny. I want them to grow up having heard it and to know several verses without having to sit and memorize them; rather, they will have heard them so many times that they know them naturally, like a song on the radio. Psalm 23 is one that I've recited to Logan at bedtime for most of her life and a couple of months ago she grabbed onto the word "shep" (shepherd) and would recite that word with me, then she added a few of the other words. We actually go through the whole psalm every night but I went ahead and posted just the part she knows for now. She recently started saying "passa" for pasture but I just couldn't get her to say it this time around, despite the 10 different videos I took of her. Stubborn one, she is. As she learns more and more of it, I'm sure I'll post more videos!



And yes, she is asking for candy at the end of the video. I had promised to give her an M&M if she stayed on the other side of the camera (I think she may be a photographer in the making the way she only likes to be on the opposite end of the thing), she doesn't get one every time she recites it...though, she'd like to, I'm sure.
