I know what it feels like to pinch pennies and not even buy great deals because I can live without them. Girl, me too! Been there, done that. But we are not at a point in our lives where we have to do that, and honestly I don't think the people who would give to our adoption fund expect us to give up every non-necessity in our lives. I mean, who says to a college kid raising support for a mission trip, "I will only donate to your cause if you promise never to eat out, get rid of your texting plan, and cancel your cable TV." No one says that because it's just not a requirement that you get rid of all the things you enjoy that cost a little money in order for people to give to you.
But still, I don't mind the question because hey, it's an honest question.
