This week Tuesday my husband made the phone call he'd been waiting to make - the phone call that paid off the last of our student loans! What was supposed to take 10-15 years took just 2.5 years thanks to the Lord (who is so faithful!) and Rob's stellar budgeting skills! I am so thankful to be married to someone who's gifted in finances, because I'd sure mess it up on my own. It's pretty exciting, really, because it feels as though now instead of being tied down to the past (schooling), the future lays wide open before us with nothing (no debt) to hold us back. I don't know WHAT God has in store, exactly, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be exciting. Like our bible school prof always said, "Life with the Lord, you just never get bored!" Now to start building up that savings account...
Treasuring the blessings, one by one...
