It has been a busy week around here, but I wanted to take a few minutes to share videos of Aaron and Sydney reciting their current memory verses.
They say poetry is the language of the soul.
Aaron had to recite the poem "My Native Land" by Sir Walter Scott, from memory. Just as it is good to hide God's Word in your heart, it is good to store away lines of poetry. "Good poetry has a civilizing, comforting, and instructive effect upon the one who has committed it to memory." Reciting poetry can also help correct sloppy speech habits, improve use of the English language and increase vocabulary.

Aaron did repeat the verse reference again at the end of the verse, but my camera battery ran out of power, so that part got cut off.
