UPDATE: one more question from a reader on what I'm doing with Hannah for her devotions. I found a LOT of helpful hints over at Higher Up and Further in.

(guess he's been listening to all these conversations I've been having with the girls!)Me: Yes, Caleb that is right. Jesus had to die because of our sin.
