Okay - this year in Sunday School Rebekah is blessed to have Papa Myer as her teacher. He is wonderful. On the first week of the new SS year he told the kids that if they could say all 66 books of the Bible by memory & in order, then he would give them a Bible with their name printed on it. Well, Rebekah loves a challenge. She practiced all week & on Sunday was prepared to say them for him. **side note - she already knew most of them from Awanas. If your kids aren't in Awanas they are missing out on a GREAT program** Anyway - when we went to pick her up she was right in the middle of reciting the books for him. She never took her eyes off of his & she said all 66 perfectly!!! I had tears in my eyes. I am so proud of her & her determination to know the Bible more. She picked out a white Bible & this past Sunday Papa Myer had it ready for her. She couldn't wait to get to church to get her new Bible & we couldn't wait for her to be rewarded in this way.
