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."

Meet Bella & Berry!

(My kids would not let me name him Edward)

We decided last weekend that our fish, Bella needed a friend. And no, my kids named her after Bella Dance-a-rella! But since we were getting another fish I tried my hardest to get them to name it Edward. We decided to name it Berry because it's eyes look like blueberries! We also upgraded the tank from a 10 gallon to a 30 gallon, and added a few more plants!

Yep.. I think you should secretly name him Edward myself.. although... a fishes mortality and Edward's don't quite match!
