Jesus
I have been praying and singing primary songs to Dakota since she was very small but only recently (around Christmas) tried to teach her about Jesus specifically. We have a Nativity video she loves to watch and I did not realize how much she had learned from it and how much she'd been paying attention to what I teach her. I collected random pictures of Christ that are just a couple inches big, that I put in her church bag that I thought would be good to entertain her during Sacrament meeting and remind her of why we are there. While at church today, she pulled them out for the first time and started going thru them. I asked her "Who is that?" on each one and she would reply "Jesus". Then she pulled one out that is a picture of Mary kneeling at Christ's feet after the resurrection. Again, I asked her, "Who is that?".... she pointed to the woman and said "Mary". Then she pointed to Christ and said, "Jesus" . I couldn't believe it! I had no idea she knew who Mary was. It is so amazing what these children's spirits know and can teach them at such a young age.
