We’ve always been the “scrimp and save” type, budgeting, watching every dollar and saying “not today” more times than I can count.
Because when you’ve got a big family, every little expense adds up.
Today, we were at the LEGO shop at Dreamworld, and Mr almost 3 spotted a garbage truck. Not just any garbage truck. THE garbage truck 🚚
$60 😳
Normally, I would’ve said no straight away.
But today, I paused and thought…
'Honestly, it’s just money'.
Not because we’re reckless.
But because we’ve spent the last few years working really hard building our doTERRA business alongside family life.
For the first time in a long time, I didn’t feel that tight knot in my stomach about spending it.
So I said “Stuff it… let’s get the garbage truck.”
His excitement? Worth every cent.
Financial freedom doesn’t always look like luxury holidays or fancy cars. Sometimes, it looks like a $60 LEGO garbage truck and a little boy who feels like he just won the lottery.
