At church, there's a star-chart in the hallway. Kids' names, listed by grade, with slots for having learned the main Bible stories and the
Six Chief Parts. When you say the Bible verse from one of the chief parts, you get a colored star. When you speak the entire section, the date is listed.
Today 3-yr-old Zoe recited fully and correctly to Pastor for the first time. (Earlier this year, she told him the Lord's Prayer
almost by herself without prompts.) This morning she
whispered told him the verse from John 20. He gave her a high-five, then she walked away, dragging me with her. Down the hall. Directly to the star chart. It was all of about 15-20 seconds after finishing her recitation.
Disappointed little girl. Her star had not appeared on the chart yet!
(I told Pastor about her expectation. I suspect the star will appear soon.)
