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."

Hailey's Birthday Party

Hailey turned 4!
She is such a big girl!
This is her in the Princess Tiana dress that I made her.
You can see the frog on the wall behind her,
we played kiss the frog.
All the girls loved it.
Who do you think Hailey looks up to?
I just love this picture!

The table.
We made candy necklaces at Hailey's party.
The cupcakes were a big hit.

Hailey opening her presents.

I can't believe my little monkey is 4 years old. She is such a big girl in so many ways. I better enjoy my time with her while I can. Before I know it she will be off to pre school, then Kindergarten. I love you Hailey.
