We celebrated Zach’s 7th Birthday with dinner at Bennihana’s! His favorite! On the way home, he told me 60 + 60 = 120. And then he told me how he figured it out… 50 + 10 = 60. So if he added 50+50, he got 100. Then he needed to add 10+10 to get 20. So he figured it was 120. “That’s how I figure out math!”  I love that he has grown up doing things his own way.  I want so much for him to be able to learn about the world by experiencing it. I am getting impatient waiting for us to be ready to go. I know he will enjoy every minute. We all will…

So I sat down and worked on the budget more today… we will pay off credit card #3 on Friday! Whoop!!  One more will be paid off in September… Slowly, but surely, the debt is disappearing!  Slowly is the problem.  Now to figure out how to do it more quickly.
