Such a great quote: “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.” --Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Some day's I feel like such a yucky blah because I do have food on my shoulder from Adison, and I didn't have time to fix my hair and get all beautified, but then when I sit back and look at things... I really don't care, and if people think bad things about me..... so what. I had time to play with my kids, and I had time to hold my baby and let her hug me while she wiped her hands and mouth all over me. I am sometimes feel like it is looked down upon by everyone to not look perfect and have everything look perfect all the time, so when I see someone as Amazing as the Prophets wife say something like this, it makes me feel SO much better about myself.
