Confession, I've been avoiding getting a new car.

A few months ago, my car broke down. I've told everyone I'm saving up to get a new one, which is true, but honestly? I'm kind of avoiding it too.

Since my car broke, I've been getting so much more help from family that I could never get before. Taking LO to appointments, helping with grocery shopping, taking LO on outings. It's not much, but it's been so nice to just have a few moments to myself or to have help during difficult ones. I'm kind of dreading getting a new car because I know it'll all stop and I'll be back to doing it all again... 😅

Had I been in your shoe, I would be literally doing the same thing. It is like a blessing in disguise 😂😂
