I watched Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy this morning in fact. That way, I can save money and my kids get piano lessons and Lego Robotics. I never got to do anything as a kid so it's hyper important to me.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03855090875130151419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2417863252069116618.post-26194293637450597302008-09-26T12:06:00.000-07:002008-09-26T12:06:00.000-07:00That's a toughy.

I can kind of relate to this with our girls and their violin lessons. We started 5 years ago when my hubby had a great job, and before all of this 'going back to school' stuff, so financially I thought we could handle it. So now we're stuck. We've invested so much time and money into lessons and violins (ya, try $1500 for Gwen's latest violin...it's not even a full-size yet...it has awesome sound though and she's to the point where she needs a really good one)that we can't quit now. So somehow we'll make the violin lessons work through our upcoming medical school years, even if it means we sacrifice other things. Good times!Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15134001952865440495noreply@blogger.com
