  http://www.spiritualkids.org/ is NOT hosted by WordPress.COM.
  Our upgrades are only available for purchase for and implementation on WordPress.COM hosted blogs and no others.

  Is there any way to get that option as a Word Press user?

  I’m sorry I was not clear enough above so here we go again.

  Please read this comparison http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ and comprehend that WordPress.COM (where you are posting to now) and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and different.

  No you cannot purchase any upgrade offered by WordPress.COM for any site except a site that’s hosted by WordPress.COM.

  Is there a way to have my url “spiritualkids.org” moved to WordPress.com so I can access those features?

  To purchase an upgrade(s) for a .wordpress.com blog:
  You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the .wordpress.com blog to access the blog’s dashboard and purchase upgrades at > Store > My Upgrades
