So far we have felt so blessed by the Lord. We feel like ever time we get short on money, a miracle happens and we can afford the things we need and want. I have a testimony that tithing truly is a blessing!

Some Good News...
Sterling's next paycheck is going to going back up to 100%. Everyone in the company got their pay cut by 10% back in August 2008. About 16 months of only 90% pay. We were barely paying our mortgage, insurance, car payment, bills on 100%, so 90% pay really hurt us. We were living off of savings for 16 months to cover those extra expenses each month, so we are so excited to have that extra money each month. Yay! (Yes, we did go to Hawaii, but that was because we used saved up money and we felt like Sterling's wages would go back up eventually and they did. Thank goodness! So, we don't have to worry so much about Hawaii being a bad financial decision. We felt like it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to go for so cheap!)
Maybe Sterling will actually get a raise in May on his third year work anniversary. Crossing our fingers. :) Then we could afford kids. Haha!
