"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."

China Town


Yesterday the kids and I rode the train to China Town in Los Angeles with Hollie's school.


The kids were so excited. This is our FIRST ever (real) train ride


They fought over the window seat and loved to look outside.



I loved all the cool buildings and all the colors.




We had a fun day.
