Scripture Study

Nolan loves to be read to! He reads very well, but still prefers me reading to him. I don't want to push him into being the one to read because I'm afraid it'll take away from the fun of it. Sometimes we'll play little games like I read a page then he reads a page, or even every other word. BUT, the one thing I don't have to push Nolan into reading are his scripture stories. He takes this very seriously. He knows his scripture stories very well and studies them most every morning before school and after school/before bedtime too. He likes the ones with the follow along pictures to them. He needs very little help reading them now, he read me several pages today and then a few verses of the actual Book Of Mormon. When it's quiet for more than a few minutes, which is very rare in our house, I think, hmmm, where's Nolan. Then I'll see him on the couch reading his scripture stories. I've mainly noticed him doing this more ever since we've started Kids Dream. He's already earning money to be prepared for his mission and wants to be spiritually prepared too. I am proud of him!

P.S. Today a police officer stopped and paid $12 for one chocolate chip cookie to Kids Dream! A couple of weeks ago, Nolan had a returning customer who bought 5 cookies cuz she loved them so much the time before. :) We also decided to put a small percentage of what is earned into a Disneyland fund! Maybe in a few years we will have saved enough to make it there. :)
