JULY 2, 2015

We have a 5 year old son and are in the process of adopting our 2 year old and 4 month old foster sons, making us parents of 3 boys! My husband works as an architect and I teach art part time at my son’s school. We save and try to manage our finances, but do so with an openness to give money away as well.
