Being an owner (Parent) is more than just - Playing House
Last month, my husband and I realized a long dream of life: We bought our own house. (We are a toast to our new house in this picture.) It has everything we wanted-rooms for our daughter and unborn baby, office space and a magnificent kitchen. The unpacking process, decoration and make this house a home been so fun. Even my husband got into the act and found his interior decorator!
This week I open the mail to find our first mortgage payment stub. With it came the insurance bill for our owner. Hello, reality! Owning a home is more than just play house. I sat at my desk with the bills and looked down to my daughter playing on the floor next to me. Does it feels like to be growing up?
After paying the bills, I joined my daughter on the floor and played with it. As we have stacked the blocks, I felt proud that I am able to provide a safe and comfortable place to live and grow. But I suddenly was overwhelmed by a sense of panic. What would it happen if something happened to me or my husband? Which would provide for her?
I had went online and discovered that many people who buy homes also get life insurance. This surprised me. Life insurance has always seemed like something only for people with big salaries and big families-not your average family like mine, but I soon realized that was not the case at all. Responsible, people-forward had life insurance. I want to be responsible and forward thinking!
Yesterday my husband and I started the life insurance research process. Now we can feel safe, knowing that we would never get anything, our daughter will be scheduled. I'm really an adult!
