I can really relate to the part about living pay check to pay check and credit card bills....I was there 7 or 8 years ago!! I also remember the days(pre-kids)of sleeping as long as I wanted and doing what I wanted, when I wanted. We loved spontaneous trips to Home Depot and Target!! Oh, those were good times!! I didn't appreciate them at all while I had them....so live it up!!! But I also love love LOVE having kids. Enough that it was completely worth it to give that all up. I will try and remember how lucky I am even when I am awake at the crack of dawn on a Saturday!!Heather Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08879116787132311434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27705709.post-160934118953391212011-06-23T10:30:45.101-07:002011-06-23T10:30:45.101-07:00I love this.I love this.Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08244460468432716220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27705709.post-14585127395074519992011-06-23T10:07:22.041-07:002011-06-23T10:07:22.041-07:00Or careful for what you wish for!Or careful for what you wish for!Kristinhttp://www.makeanote.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27705709.post-9317752793385599482011-06-23T10:06:36.176-07:002011-06-23T10:06:36.176-07:00Good letter!

It's really hard to not always be wishing for something new or better or just different from what you have now. I love that you can appreciate where you are (maybe because it sounds pretty good!). <br /><br />When my husband and I were first married our lives sounded a lot like yours does. And we were happy, and knew it, but at the same time I felt unsatisfied because there were a number of things that I wanted, like children and a better job and a bigger house. Now, five years later, we have those things and all I want is to sleep through the night, uninterrupted! Just one time! One time in five years! So, you know, be thankful for what you have.:)Kristinhttp://www.makeanote.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
