K and I joke that Moses is either going to take after Daddy and be a preacher, or take after Mommy and be an attorney. I'm afraid that K might be winning at this point:
Every night for the last couple of weeks, Moses has insisted on taking his Bible to bed with him. What Mommy could resist THAT?! I heard Beth Moore comment in a lecture one time that one of the most beautiful sounds is thousands of women flipping through their Bibles to a certain passage. But I don't think much of anything can beat the sound of Bible pages being flipped, coming to me via the baby monitor. :)

That is precious! What kind of children's Bible does he have?
Hi Sara!
We use the "Jesus Said Bible Story Book"-- it is out of print, but available new/used on Amazon right now. We just bought a few more (Moses' current copy is getting pretty worn out). I wrote the following review on Amazon:
We LOVE this "Bible"! Before our son was even born, my husband and I started reading one story a night to him. He is now almost 20 months old, so we have read through it several times! He loves "his Bible," and I can't tell you what joy it brings to me to see him flipping through the pages on his own during the day.
I also very much appreciate the "What Jesus Said" application section after each story. The author ties each story (even the Old Testament stories) to something Jesus said in the New Testament. It brings great depth to the book. And even though our son is only 20 months old, he has been enthralled with the book for months, and listens intently each night.
One other "plus" to this Bible, compared to other children's Bibles: it covers a broad selection of stories. It really is a Bible in miniature for children.
We will definitely buy another copy when this one wears out!
So cute!! My Moses will say Da gzzzt (which I am sure you know means Dear Jesus) and aha (amen) and I swear it must make Jesus weep to hear it because it gets me every time. :) Doesn't it make you feel like you must be doing at least one thing right?
