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 the kids to scout camp. I want there to be 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.

It's a Girl!!!!!!!
We had our ultrasound yesterday, and found out we are having another girl! I am really excited, but I don't think anyone is more excited than Aubree. Finally a sister after all these brothers! I can't make a lot of sense out of most of these, but the radiologist told us it is most definitely a girl!
This blog is dedicated to celebrating all those ordinary moments that make life so wonderful. I am a mom of 5 beautiful children with one amazing husband. We don't do anything grand, but we love life and each other, and I guess that's all we really need!
Congrats! That's exciting. You needed another one to add some balance :)
