The Pierce Family: Lights @ Temple Square

Lights @ Temple Square

We picked Eric up at the airport on the 19th. Kinsley was SO excited to see her dad! She didn't quite recognize him at first because he decided not to shave during finals and grew a beard.

After the airport we decided to take our kids to Temple Square to see the lights. We met up with our friend Salina. Kinsley loved the lights but loved her dad even more. For the next 48 hours she wouldn't let him out of her sight and even woke up a few times, during the night, making sure her dad was still here.

“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 Schenk’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 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.”
