Budding Artist

Earlier this week, we were invited to the college in town to view an art show with kids work from all the elementary schools here. Sweet Elle was one of the artists :) We were so proud of her and so excited to see her artwork. I can only hope she continues to love art!
Also this past week, Elle pulled out the only Bible she owned, which was a King James Version, and began reading the scripture! We were surprised and really excited and decided that it was time to get her a Bible written in a language that she might actually understand. She helped pick out the Bible and it's just right for her and should last her for years. Every day, she is required to spend 15 minutes reading something and so a few days ago, Shawn and her read some of the book of James. I am so proud of her and so excited that she is beginning to have interest in reading and especially the Bible :)

Is that Elle's painting? How cool! I'm sure she will continue to love art since she's good at it and y'all encourage it.
