I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenck's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirl under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

My sister Joy Carnell owns Lil' Princess Tea Parties. While we were down there this month she booked a Belle party, soo,... I got to play Belle! It was so much fun. The little girls wouldn't stop staring at me. They just couldn't believe that I was really there. One little girl kept saying, "Belle, do I look beautiful?" And I'd reply, "Oh yes, you look absolutely gorgeous!" What fun!! I would love to work in Disney Land!
