Bookends of habits: Reading, Bible, Studies, Devotion and Daily Habits!

WE LOVE TO READ! More importantly, we have some daily habits that we practice, and I try to model.
I hope she can keep these as she grows and matures. Here’s some things we like to do!

First, there’s always the COOPY who gets some attention in the day…but usually he is sleeping or following us around.

First, Tot is all about cultivating memories. She is very nostalgic, and she loves to keep everything. Case in point; her R2D2 shirt. She resurrected it, and I made it cute again sans the sleeves. (see the Coopy’s nose looking up to his sis?)

The mornings start also with our quiet time. I usually get a head start in our art/play room, and then she goes in to do her devotion.

Right now, we are doing one from Adventures in Odyssey with Average Boy! (I usually leave her a note)

But she also likes to have a checklist.

She goes through the “Armor of God,” Says “Jesus has a HOLD ON ME,” prayer, devo, and then …great day!

Later in the day, we end the day (or during the day) we read some fun books. Right now, she is into Adventures In Odyssey! We are reading this book which has 4 books inside.

We also are kind of into mysteries! The Westing Game is our latest unraveling novel!

Or I read to her from the Book Of Virtues. A classic. Short stories about important values/character traits like HONESTY, LOYALTY, COMPASSION, SELF-DISCIPLINE…

AND…well, I believe in being proactive as a parent. We are going through a Biblical Sexuality study and talking about marriage, sex, and identity in Christ (celebrating her gender!)
