The Frugal Girl
FEBRUARY 26, 2024
Today we’re meeting a reader who’s been here since 2009 (!!) I live just outside of Richmond, VA with my husband, 18-year-old twin daughters, and our two dogs. Note from Kristen: I found the post, and it’s from 2009! I want my daughters to have more knowledge and opportunity than we did. I’m 52.

In 2005, we celebrated our first Christmas as parents. In 2006, our oldest daughter was 1. I can’t find a single picture of our youngest daughter’s first Christmas. So we’ll skip on to 2009 when our second daughter was 1 1/2 and our oldest was 4. Our sweet boy, Toby was our first baby though.

Add to that their parents’ strict expectations and code of conduct as influenced by their faith. I don’t think I’ve given my parents too much trouble!”.

My six year old daughter and I had the pleasure of attending a free media preview of Disney’s Frozen , last night, and we both loved it. The girls’ parents also die, which is not uncommon for a Disney movie. ©2009-13 Saving Cents with Sense ™, a website of Saving Sense Media LLC. All rights reserved.

My daughter has had the Cloud B Twilight Turtle since she was born and absolutely loves it, so I was excited to check out the new Cloud b Twilight Turtle Tunes. Part of my daughter’s nightly routine is to turn on her turtle before reading a story. ©2009-13 Saving Cents with Sense ™, a website of Saving Sense Media LLC.
