Life Isnt Fair but the Kids are Great!!


Life has been really really hard on my kids.. and yet they just keep stepping up.. making it, surviving it.. being just great. The oldest three have really worked hard to find a way to help pay for our situation. Each of them is willing to work and to put in what they can in order to help make ends meet.

I am blessed to have kids who almost get it.. Who almost understand that well we are broke and frankly life isnt always that easy. I say almost because I have managed somehow to make looking poor be easy..sometimes they don't get it and sometimes they resent helping out.. but most of the time even when they resent what they are doing they step up and help out.

Right this minute we are in a horrible downswing.. pretty much standing on a precipice.. now it will get better it always does but my kids God love em have all pretty much said.. when the summer hours pick up they will give more..

Sometimes a mom just has to be grateful..

  1. Believe it or not, I'm in the same position here. My son moved home to help us out and I too am so very grateful.

  2. i was in that same place not too long ago and my kids both helped take care of the bills. i don't know what i would've done without them. it's all in the way we raise them and you should pat yourself on the back for doing an awesome job in that.
