We started off with little thermometers that we made because, you know, I was raised by two teachers, so I need very visual aid kind of person. And so we started having these thermometers of like coloring in. And after six pages of thermometers, we stopped that. It was a little overwhelming.

So we hit two walls.

So we hit two walls.

So we hit two walls.

And you know, it was funny. Like our oldest is six, surprisingly. We started hanging off. It's like, oh, hey, we're pregnant. Our oldest is six and our youngest is three. And both of them started out lives with a little bit of medical debt. They're great now. Everything's wonderful.

But keeping tithing, keeping everything, saving, but also paying off debt as fast as we could, making sure they were okay. Those were some hard times of making sure that we stayed within budget, but still were able to connect with the boys, but also connect each other and pay off debt as fast as we could was a huge priority. So the two walls were amazing. We love the walls.

Yes. Absolutely.

Yes. Absolutely.

Yes. Absolutely.

I think the other thing to remember is the phrase, live like no one else so you can live like no one else, and knowing that this is temporary. $300,000 is overwhelming when you look at it on six different paperworks of thermometers, but that little bit by little bit, keeping each one that's slowly paid off, slowly paid off, it really does build that momentum of, oh, we're so close.

It sounds silly, but even going under $100,000, we're like, oh, oh, we're under a hundred thousand. That's so close. Almost like a half marathon or when they're like mile 10, you're almost done. You're like, no, I'm not. So it was like that under that a hundred thousand mark was, is definitely a huge moment of, oh, we can, oh, we're so close. We are so close.

So yeah, I think just knowing that building little momentums and having those little victories and we have such a great support system with our families and our friends and you know, just the ton of support was huge with us.
