Very true.

I also find money to a mindset. I know families that make twice what we do and are way richer than they are.

We are grateful for what we have.
We live within our means.
And we are still in love after 11 years together.

I couldn't wish for a richer life. :D

I know we all sometime forget that we, the parents, are working very hard to raise our children with lot of love coniditons and teach them what the world is about to all of us too. I agree with you, Kim 100%! I feel that we don't need to compare eachother, but know we all are good parents to our children!

this reminds me of what my father told me when I asked if we were rich. Since I grew up with plenty of rich kids around, I asked a number of times before I realized I would always get the same response.

me: "are we rich?"
dad: "yes, we have each other."

now, what do you think i'll tell my kids when they start asking that question!?
