Commercial Break

I figure that with my last post some might be wondering why I was scwabbling over a few dollars. So, here goes - my sister introduced us to this awesome book:

Dave has a radio show and I enjoy listening to him. He speaks so truthfully and with such conviction. He practices what he preaches. When Maren told me about it I decided I wanted to read it and asked Tim if he'd be willing to read it with me and maybe make some changes in our lives. He agreed. We have been following this book since about May, I think, and it has made such a difference in our lives. I can hardly believe it. I always knew that Tim and I had a good marriage but after getting on this program it has made us closer as a couple and has helped us communicate so much more. I can hardly explain it but I am loving it. We are recognizing our blessings more and appreciating all that we have. Our only regret is that we didn't read this book and start working on this when we were first married. We have now gotten our kids on board. We don't want them to have to wait until they have 4 kids to get on this program so this is what they got for Christmas:
It is working like a charm. I can already see them understanding not only the choices Tim and I are making for our family but what they need to do to Save, Spend and Give when it comes to there own money! Now, instead of just asking for things, they will say, "Do you think that maybe you could put in the budget for me to get this? I really need it because . . ." They know they usually have to wait until the next month but they never complain. Awesome ! I tell you! Just Awesome.

I highly recommend this book to anyone and everyone. No matter what your financial situation is. It's not a get rich quick in any way. Just hard work, determination and faith!
