Recent Birthdays, Video of Aidan

Avery's birthday was May 29th, and Aidan's was the 30th. Avery's 12 now, only a year away from being a teenager! And baby Aidan is THREE!

The Birthday Boys:








____________

We've been working on memorizing questions and answers from the Children's Catechism. Aidan is so good at it! He hasn't really been taught, he just learns from listening to everyone else learn and recite theirs. We recently figured out that he knew the answers to many more than the usual 3 questions he gets asked. He is just a little sponge, and he is so smart for his age. He has a huge vocabulary and great ability to grasp concepts and what we're telling him. He can really express his thoughts well, too.

Here is a cute video of Aidan reciting (and attempting..) some Catechism answers.



These are the questions he went over:

1. Q: Who made you?
A: God

2. Q: What else did God make?
A: God made all things.

3. Q: Why did God make you and all things?
A: For his own glory.

4. Q: How can you glorify God?
A: By loving him and doing what he commands.

5. Q: Why are you to glorify God?
A: Because he made me and takes care of me.

6. Q: Is there more than one true God?
A: No. There is only one true God.

7. Q: In how many Persons does this one God exist?
A: In three Persons.

8. Q: Name these three Persons.
A: The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

9. Q: What is God?
A: God is a spirit and does not have a body like men.

10. Q: Where is God?
A: God is everywhere.

11. Q: Can you see God?
A: No. I cannot see God, but he always sees me.

12. Q: Does God know all things?
A: Yes. Nothing can be hidden from God.

(haha it's funny that Aidan messed up on this one because he had a big discussion about this with me other day after I read the Jonah story to him and Anna. Aidan explained to me that God is EVERYWHERE, and Jonah could not run away or hide from God because God knows all things. He told me that "God is everywhere- he is here, and here, and here, and here, and here, and everywhere!")

13. Q: Can God do all things?
A: Yes. God can do all his holy will.

14. Q: Where do you learn to love and obey God?
A: In the Bible alone.
