We have been reading this to the son.
I’m not going to speculate where he picked up this behaviour from, or is this a natural part of growing up, but he has been showing signs of this. I actually do not have much experience with the Berenstain Bears but had bought this to give it a go.
Anyway, the point of this post is not about the book but what ensued after.
The husband: Brother Bear and Sister Bear both have their favourites things. Who’s your favourite person? Mrs Chia (his teacher in school) or mummy?
The son: God.
Wow. And at the end of the day, that’s the most important thing that I want him to live his life by. And of course by translating that into actions because afterall, “faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead” (James 2:17).
