Bridget's Bible Verse

Our family has been trying to memorize Romans 12 the past few weeks. Every evening we all try to get farther in the chapter. Sad to say that us old folks don't memorize quite as fast or well as our children. Bridget has just been a spectator during all this time as we didn't even try to include her but she has been listening. The other night when we were all saying what we had memorized Bridget pipes up with, "I want to say my verse." We say okay and were quite shocked when she said the first half of Romans 12:1 "I beseech ye, therefore brethren, by the mercies of God...living sacrifice." She forgot a few words but each night since she has added more words and now she can say all of Romans 12:1, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service." Not too bad for a child that was malnourished and without proper care for most of her first 18 months.
The funny thing is that Alina (6yrs.) has a hard time pronouncing words and struggles to say the verse correctly. Now that Bridget can say her verse we have been surprised at how well Alina now says hers. I guess a little competion was good for her :)
