"In God's Country..."


As we were getting the kids ready for bed tonight, Reese grew impatient with Aaron, who was changing Corbin's diaper in the other room, and announced that if he didn't hurry up, we would read scriptures without him. She then perched herself on the edge of the sofa, opened the enormous hardbound copy of Book of Mormon for LDS families and said,

"Everyone listen up. It's scripture time. We've gotta get to bed. I'm just going to read."
She continued to "read" the following:
"And it came to pass that the Lord of the United States of America and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, inbeebivable, with liberty and justice for all. Amen."

Apparently they recite the Pledge of Allegiance at preschool.
And apparently she has it memorized.
I might be biased, but I think she's one smart lil' 4 yr old.
