And I stay at home with the kids.

So for me, a little over a year ago, I had, through prayer and promptings from the Holy Spirit, started to feel like this mortgage is such a weight on our shoulders. Like, why are we not just getting rid of this? And there had been a couple opportunities for us to give, and I wanted to give more, and we just didn't have that ability.

And I had this whisper in my heart from God just saying, you know, if you didn't have that mortgage, you could have given more. And so I started crunching some numbers and we talked to Steve. We had a couple of meetings together and I was like, I think we can do this.

And if we just really buckle down and get really focused and we thought we could do it in 12 months, that's what we thought it would take. And God is just so generous. Once we got started, we got really laser focused and we were able to do it in eight instead of 12 months. And I have to give a lot of credit to our daughters because we did tell them what we were doing.

We had a meeting with them at the beginning and said, this is what we're going to do. This is the amount of money. This is how long we think it's going to take. And they were on board. They said that they were willing to make the sacrifices too.
