I'm sure the young family gained a LOT of perspective. I’m thinking about picking up this book soon:

It's not your responsibility to buy stuff! The kiddos will learn just like we did: just because it's there doesn't mean you have to have it or buy it. I really enjoy reading your writing.

Yes, I am contributing to the solution. No, I'm not perfect. I had a teacher who would say, "Perfection is the greatest obstacle to excellence." If I can't be perfect, then chuck the whole enterprise. Obviously that helps no one. Hey, rambling! My point -- I try to keep it in perspective, do good whenever possible, let my kids know my thoughts and just let go sometimes.
