Thanks for being one of the mothers who cares more about her family than about having a house full of "stuff."
Thanks for your kind words--once I had my daughter, I could not imagine anything more rewarding than being with my children. You should see the strange looks we get when we say that we are not stopping at two kids! I always used to think that two was going to be it, but for some reason, when I got pregnant with the child I am currently carrying I said 'two isn't enough' and I am willing to take what God sees fit to give my husband and me.
I have also learned that it is possible to decorate a home on a budget. I taught myself to sew last year, I have taken up cross-stitching, and I scour eBay for home decor as well. Every so often I splurge on something from Home Interiors, but I can usually learn to make something myself if I really want to. I figure that I will be able to pass on these lessons to my children as well.
