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."

Good job Ashy!!! Keep it up and soon you'll be riding all around the circle.
First of all I love the new music on your blog (Sweet Pea). It makes me happy just listening to it. And second...I can't believe Ashlyn's riding a bike! She's such a "Good Jobber". hahaha!
PS. Try watching the video of Ashlynn riding her bike with the sound on the video turned down, and having Sweet Pea playing in the back ground. It reminds me of a Country Time Lemonade commercial. Soooo cute!
haha its so funny to watch them learn how to ride a bike :) At least she doesnt get frustrated and just quit because thats how Oak was until she finally got it.
I stole your song for my blog.
