Memory Verses per a 2 year old

Sarah Beth was over this evening for a while.  After I while I decided I would try and teach her a memory verse.  She has so many things memorized, things like songs on songs on songs (which is good), books, people's first and middle names, what town and state she lives, stuff like that.  Then she has other things memorized, the Indiana Jones Theme, the names of Major League Baseball players.... So, I decided why not try a Bible verse!  She could memorize Bible Verses.  So, I started with an easy one, "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."  That didn't go over to well, to many big words, it started coming out as In the beginning, umm... earth!" I figured "Jesus Wept" wouldn't make much sense so we did "Rejoice Always" instead.  That went over fine. So we went on to something a little harder, "Little Children keep yourselves from idols, Amen."  She caught on to that one right away, she go the "Little Children" part and the "Amen" part.  The middle part went like this:
"Little Children... umm.... buy candy!"
"No, try again."
"Little Children... umm... keep your tomatoes, Amen!"  Followed by a huge smile cause she was SURE she had it right.  She still says tomatoes, but sometimes she says idols... we'll just have to keep working on it.
