Mission Completed!

At the beginning of the year our family signed a pledge to read the Book of Mormon this year. Considering we have never been good at family scripture study Jeremy and I decided we needed a goal and a visual reminder of how we were doing. We printed this chart off the Internet and began our adventure. I was amazed. The kids rarely complained and were pretty good about following along. It was fun seeing how well Jaden and Kyla can read and having them take regular turns reading out loud. Ella was great at repeating the words for her turn. I am grateful for the spirit we felt in our home as we undertook this challenge. I think doing this in the year Kyla got baptized made it that much sweeter for her. The scriptures her Grandparents gave her have already been well used. We often would have to stop so she could underline something she thought was important. We didn't read every day, so sometimes we had to play catch-up. We finished on December 26th sitting in our trailer in Grandma and Grandpa King's driveway. We cheered! Tonight we are starting our new challenge, The New Testament. Bring it On.
