One Caveman’s Financial Journey

If you’ve stumbled upon my blog even once this week, you know that my wife and I just found out we’re expecting our 2nd child. This week has brought me the full range of emotions and right now I’m sitting on joy.

Joy because I know I’m going to be a better father this time around as I correct the mistakes from my last 16 months. Joy because we’re stable enough financially to welcome our new child with little pain. Joy because I don’t want to be anything but joyful about my new son or daughter.

I can’t wait to be a new dad all over again!

Here’s what other bloggers had to say this week:

• I’ve Paid For This Twice Already published her experience on the difference between frugal and cheap.
• Gather Little by Little asked, “What is a recession in the United States?“
• Mrs. Micah shared what looks to be a yummy recipe for ravioli and veggies.
