Queen Esther

The kids have been learning about the Letter Q.

And with that we studied the story of Queen Esther from The Holy Bible.

Here is Josie and Josh being Queen Esther and King Ahaseurus.

Josie really enjoys learning stories from the Bible.

She has her own "real" Bible (a non-picture Bible) that she loves to "read".

Josh on the other hand, seems to gravitate towards the bad guys in the Bible and will blurt out inappropriate things like "Kill the Jews" and "Cut the baby in half" and "All the baby boys in Bethlehem killed". He doesn't quite get the meaning behind these statements and I'm really hoping he doesn't blurt them out in public. He loves saying "I'm going to fight you" and talks about his armies. That's a boy for you, I guess...
