Out of the Mouth of Kinsley

Kiley: Kinsley, you have little hairs on your legs.
Kinsley spoken matter of factly: No mom, that isn't hair it's steam.
Kiley: Oh......

Kinsley: Mom when I get married can I wear your tall, TALL shoes, your pretty white dress, your crown, and your sombrero?
Kiley: My sombrero?
Kinsley: Yeah, sombrero... the long, long, white sombrero on your head.
Kiley: Oh, you mean veil.
Kinsley: No, I mean sombrero.

Sister Marjorie Hinckley

“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.”
