"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 a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children.
I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden.
I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder.
I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

Hey Sarah! I am glad you found my blog. We need to keep in touch. Are you still in our ward? Boys are definetely different than girls from what I hear. I will soon find out. My boy used to get into everything at that age, he used to pull the bottom part of the stove open (the broiler) and hide his toys and even sit in there. Crazy boys, but oh so much fun!
Hey, I understand about church being hard with kids. My day is coming soon with another on the way. My blog email is
aragon86family.blogspot.com. Do you want my actual email address?
That's cute.. boys are definately so different than girls! It's been fun to see just how different they are right from the start.
picasa is a free download from google. it's a picture organizer & has some editing stuff you can do (just the basics). it's pretty easy to use. you can also blog straight from there, etc. try it out!
I must point out that your oven looks pretty clean! I don't think mine looks that clean...at all!
