This Sunday was a very special day for Peanut and all the First Grade boys and girls at our church. It was Bible Presentation Sunday, and we had the opportunity to present Peanut with his first "real" Bible. He was so excited for this day that he had been counting down the days all week. When the morning finally came, he was ready to wear his very best coat and tie! All the first grade parents and children were called up to the alter and the parents said a blessing over their children, then presented them with the Bible. All of the children looked so pleased, and Peanut was absolutely beaming. We returned to our pew and he promptly started looking through it. We read along with the morning's scripture reader, then looked at some of the maps together. He held it tightly the whole service. At bedtime, Daddy did our first lesson from the big Bible, a great version with lots of kid-friendly information included in the NIV translation. Daddy and I are so proud of our little Peanut, and really enjoyed celebrating this milestone day together.


Congratulations, Peanut!! What a wonderful day, and what a wonderful honor to own such a very special Book!! My boys have that very same one-- I think it's just the perfect one for very special little boys! Enjoy!
