Sometimes he says just the right thing...

I have been struggling lately with how much debt we will be in by the time Michael is done with school. I wouldn't worry so much if we were in our early twenties and had no children but we're not and we do! By the time we are done with this part of our journey we will be in our late thirties and have a child graduating high school and a few more headed in right behind her. We knew this when we started and still decided that it is what we felt needed to happen.

I am so grateful for the blessing we have received from following this plan but I am human and I still worry. A lot!! I was stressing out BIG time the other day and Michael said to me exactly what I needed to hear..."We have to make sacrifices in our lives. We didn't make them early on so we have to make them now, it is the only way we will be able to get ahead and to follow this plan."

Not only did the words apply to the way I felt right at that moment but in someways they apply to the way our life is all the time. It is another reassurance to me that I married a good man who has a very strong faith and knows what is best for us all the time. It's me who needs to trust him and have faith. I am trying hard to enjoy the time we are in now and not rush on to the next phase.
