Dear Family and Friends,
This year for the Primary Program the children in my ward (in Kaysville, UT) are sharing stories about other children that live in the area that the Elders in our ward are serving in. I received this story from a dear sister in Elder Stout's ward, Tricia Larsen, about an amazing little girl who is a Sunbeam (age 3) named Hannah. I wanted to share this with you before the Program.
The following is the story told by her mother Laura.
"We started teaching Hannah her Articles of Faith in January. I typed up each article on a sheet of paper and would display the article we were working on in their room. Within the first week she had memorized the first one along with her sister Dani (5 at the time). We quickly went through them and she is now on number 9. We say the Articles of Faith every night. Each of my girls get their own turn. It takes about 5-7 minutes for each girl to recite the Articles of Faith that they know. We consider this our "scripture time." We were just as surprised as anyone that she learned them and can remember them so quickly. She loves saying them and practicing, but she also loves to read the scriptures too. She is an inspiration to me of how sweet her Spirit is and how willing she is to hear the Gospel at any time. She will be turning 4 in November. She has said the Articles of Faith in primary 3 times."
I'm sure Hannah will be an inspiration to the children in the Hidden Valley Ward in Kaysville. Elder Stout is blessed to know such precious little girls.
Love, Mom

What an amazing mom she is! My girls are having a hard time learning their new phone number!
This sounds like such a neat primary activity and a great way for them to connect to kids all around that these wonderful missionaries get to serve.
Thanks for sharing!
What an inspiration. I am having teachers complain that thier 4 or 5 year olds can't memorize a single line for our program. Thanks for the insight.
