Sometimes I get pretty impatient about it-- I'm terrible I know. But I am always freaking out about how in the world we would pay for it, since I'm paying off student loans and my husband still has all of grad school to do, so thank you sooo much for doing so much research on the subject. It gives me a little peace of mind knowing that there are other options. xoxo!Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11126713898699931477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201418220091522177.post-47720019018535840222011-11-16T21:13:37.044-07:002011-11-16T21:13:37.044-07:00Money is such a difficult thing.

Kyle and I have been putting off our baby plans for a long while (almost six years) because we've been waiting for the "perfect financial situation." And while I'm pretty sure a year or two down the road might be slightly better, I'm learning what everyone's been telling me all along. "The Perfect Financial Situation" is a made-up story that sounds really great but exists for next to no one. I have to keep reminding myself that money comes and money goes but God is ever present, ever constant, and ever faithful to provide "all that we ask and MORE."Elizabeth @ Love Is the Adventurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618935574628612955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2201418220091522177.post-59155776802727756322011-11-16T16:33:35.663-07:002011-11-16T16:33:35.663-07:00I think you guys have a great plan.
