An Apology

I need to apologize. I realized last night that my post yesterday, may have offended some people. In our culture it is very common to keep one's financial situation quiet. Not often do strangers or even friends share their hearts when it comes to finances. Money is also the leading cause of arguments in a marriage and is usually just considered a taboo topic. And I did the exact opposite.

I spoke my heart yesterday because I don't have a hard time sharing who we are. I want to be transparent. I want people to know me for me. And that means that on this blog you will get all of who I am. You will get my quirky-non-humor, my sarcasm, my horrible grammar, and everything in between. My goal is never to offend anyone, but is more to allow any person who reads this blog to see the real me.

This blog is also a journal of sorts. I want Jonathan and I to remember these days ten years from now. I want to look back at these posts and see where we have come from. Maybe my future self will shake my head at yesterday's post and brush it off as immature, but for now, this is me...and that is what you are going to get :)

So, I want to apologize if I have personally offended or hurt you. Please know that was never my intention. I wasn't trying to brag, get your pity, or show off. I was just informing you and my future self. These days of hard work are so precious to me and I am afraid that they will slip right by only to be completely forgotten. I want to remember the late nights we spend at the house, the days that it seems like Jonathan and I never see each other, and the exact place we started from. I don't want to forget. I want to enjoy and cherish.

So, please forgive me and my bluntness. It's just who I am. :)

Sincerely,
Liz
