He has a complete meltdown when I leave for work in the morning if he sees me and does the happy dance when I get home.<\/p>\n<p>My wife is a stay-at-home mom now as was my mother and she enjoys the opportunity to do this for him but never looks forward to when I have to walk out and close the door.<\/p>\n<p>She knows what comes next, especially when he sees me leave.<\/p>\n<p>Most days I leave in the very early morning which some consider the middle of the night so he doesn&#8217;t see me.<\/p>\n<p>I do my best to give my wife and son a kiss good-bye even if they are asleep and won&#8217;t remember.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a tough job working around the clock like I do and it&#8217;s also very stressful. I wish it were a walk in the park, but it&#8217;s not.<\/p>\n<p>Any slip of the hand, miscommunication, forgetfulness, or errors could cost people their lives.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s so important that I get my rest so I&#8217;m alert on the job, with coffee of course.<\/p>\n<h2>Working To Pay The Bills<\/h2>\n<p>From the minute I open the garage door when I come home, he runs to it and stands in the doorway.<\/p>\n<p>When I open my door all I hear is him screaming for Daddy.<\/p>\n<p>My wife says he&#8217;s had enough of her and then says to me, &#8220;He&#8217;s all yours&#8221;, haha!<\/p>\n<p>It breaks my heart most days that he misses me so much but on the other hand I know I have to work to pay the bills.<\/p>\n<p>Around about an hour or so before I&#8217;m due to come home he paces around saying &#8220;Daddy, Daddy, Daddy&#8221; or he watches photos on the photo picture frame we have in the living-room.<\/p>\n<p>She has multiple videos of him doing this. She often takes videos that I can watch when I get home to see how his day was.<\/p>\n<p>I appreciate this because it makes me feel as if I&#8217;m not missing as much.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately for me, my crazy workweek won&#8217;t last forever as I&#8217;m waiting to get signed on full-time at job number 2 by the Fall of this year.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a huge process that I&#8217;ve been working through the past 2 years but hopefully, life will resume back to normal soon.<\/p>\n<p>Although the money is VERY nice the time away from my family is not.<\/p>\n<p>I see my wife sad when I leave for work and excited if I&#8217;m home early.<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t get back these moments in your life so every chance I get I spend it with the two of them.<\/p>\n<p>In a way, I feel I&#8217;m trying to make it up to them because I&#8217;m not around as much but success doesn&#8217;t fall in our laps, we have to go get it.<\/p>\n<p>Balance is key for me even though it still hurts to miss out on special moments.<\/p>\n<h2>Take Time For Yourself<\/h2>\n<p>Before our son came along I started this blog and although I don&#8217;t blog every day like I used to I do take time for myself because that&#8217;s important.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from running, being a husband and dad I blog and enjoy my time alone to do so.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve made so many friends online many of which have become part of my <strong>CBB family<\/strong> so in part this Family Day is for all of you as well.<\/p>\n<p>I know many families who think that just because it&#8217;s Family Day that they should go out for dinner or pay for activities for the kids to be happy.<\/p>\n<p>Not the case. Most often all your kids want to do is spend time with you.<\/p>\n<p>Your kids spend most of their time either away from you if you go to work and they are at school, daycare, or babysitters.<\/p>\n<p>Some parents have children who are off to school or moved out of the house or married and never see them.<\/p>\n<p>You might be the parent who doesn&#8217;t have enough time to devote to them every day like you wish you could.<\/p>\n<p>All I can say is, you must make this time.<\/p>\n<p>Children learn from their parents, look up to their parents, and want to be like their parents until of course they know better and find their own identity and way in life.<\/p>\n<p>Even then kids still lean on their parents for support through the good and the bad as the years roll by.<\/p>\n<p>For the most part, I hung out with my dad as much as our son wants to be with me learning about fixing stuff.<\/p>\n<p>My mum stayed at home so when dad came home all I wanted was to be with my dad.<\/p>\n<p>I can understand what my son is going through.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re working full-time or even part-time but are away from the home often, too busy catching up with cleaning, paying the bills, and other adult activities your child may crave your presence daily.<\/p>\n<p>If your child is out of the house a phone call works better than a text and the same goes for the kids.<\/p>\n<h2>Family Day Fun When Family Is Far Away<\/h2>\n<p>Call your parents and tell them you love them or maybe ask how their day is going.<\/p>\n<p>Although <strong>Family Day Fun<\/strong> should be every day even if for 20 minutes playing with toys in the toy-room, reading a book together, or talking about how the day went these are moments your children will remember the most.<\/p>\n<p>These moments build a closeness of love, trust, kindness, patience, and most of all family love.<\/p>\n<p>I make this a priority over everything, every single night because family first really does matter even if it&#8217;s hard to live up to being there more often than you&#8217;d like.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\">How to celebrate Family Day without going broke<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-149084 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4.webp\" alt=\"How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4\" width=\"384\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4.webp 1000w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-280x420.webp 280w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-150x225.webp 150w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-300x450.webp 300w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/How-to-make-pillow-fluffy-pancakes-4-696x1044.webp 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is how we expect our Family Day Fun to happen although not every detail is here.

I blog to keep myself accountable.<\/p>\n<p>Visitors can follow my journey toward wealth, see my budget and even track my net worth.<\/p>\n<p>Today I am a \u201cBacon of the Month Club\u201d member, which is amazing.<\/p>\n<p>I found my passion.<\/p>\n<p>By budgeting every paycheck I can bite down on the bacon that I love.<\/p>\n<p>I encourage you to use budgeting to make your dreams a reality. <strong>-Money Bacon Guy<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"yiv8688364948MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Top Recipe Of The Week<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-149087\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1.webp\" alt=\"oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1.webp 768w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1-747x420.webp 747w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/oreogasm-Oreo-Brownie-Ice-cream-dessert1-696x392.webp 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Food and grocery shopping is a BIG part of CBB because food is a large part of the <a title=\"Free Downloads-Money Saving Tools\" href=\"http:\/\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/free-tools\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">budget<\/a> which people struggle the most with.<\/p>\n<p>If you are someone who would rather buy convenience meals or products consider cooking homemade meals or baking from scratch.<\/p>\n<p>Not only will you save money but you will be proud of what you\u2019ve accomplished and you\u2019ll see that from the smiles on those you feed.<\/p>\n<p>For the past 2 years, I\u2019ve had a second Facebook page called <a title=\"The Free Recipe Depot\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Mr.CBBFreeRecipeDepot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Free Recipe Depot<\/a> where I exclusively share recipes from Food Bloggers around the world.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BfYkzfxdjFQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This week our <strong>Top Recipe Pick<\/strong> goes to a blog called, &#8220;<strong>Delish<\/strong>&#8221; for this Oreogasm Brownie Dessert which is not only easy to make but perfect for Valentine&#8217;s Day on Sunday.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Top DIY Project<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-149085 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1.webp\" alt=\"mason-jar-chandelier1\" width=\"350\" height=\"525\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1.webp 533w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1-280x420.webp 280w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1-150x225.webp 150w, https:\/\/digitalskyweb.co\/canadianbudgetbinder.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/mason-jar-chandelier1-300x450.webp 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/>Today I stumbled across this amazing DIY Mason Jar Chandelier Project which I think the wife and I might try for our new kitchen remodel down the road.<\/p>\n<p>We love using mason jars for our spices and soups so right away we thought, genius.<\/p>\n<p>Plus, you can&#8217;t buy this stuff at your local big box store.<\/p>\n<p>Rebekah over at Charming Imperfection has taken something typical of a kitchen and turned it into something beautiful.<\/p>\n<p>Well done Rebekah!<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Editor\u2019s Blog Pick<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Every week I will pick a blog post of the week from around the web that I found interesting and want to share with all of you.<\/p>\n<p>Please head on over and give the post a read and let them know that Mr. CBB sent you if you comment.
