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."

a movie and crawling. july 2012.

Before shcool started we decided to take the kids to see the new movie Brave. Bad idea. None of them would be quiet. They had to pee a million times. And they fought over the candy. The quietest one was Aiden! 


 They really liked the movie. Too bad we will never be taking them to another one!


 Aiden has started crawling! Finally! He's 9 months old now! He loves to be up on his hands and knees.
