TIME TOGETHER BEATS PRICEY TOYS
“Happiness is inexpensive. No matter how expensive a toy is, time with parents is what a child really craves and will remember when they are older. That’s why I always have extra cookie dough on hand for impromptu baking days.”
-Sara Lundberg , 33, of Portland, Oregon; she has 3-year-old twins, a 20-month-old and a 9-month-old; she’s expecting her fifth child this summer
TWO KIDS WOULD BE TOO EXPENSIVE FOR US
“I always wanted two kids, but motherhood taught me to think twice about having a second child in terms of money. My husband and I both work full-time and have great careers, but we live in a higher cost-of-living area. Childcare is scarce, and we were unable to get our son into daycare when I returned to work. We had to hire a nanny, which is not cheap. Looking toward the future, my husband and I had to take a hard look at what our quality of life would be financially, as a family, if we had a second child. Ultimately, we decided not to have a second child.”
-Krissy Hadick , 38, of San Luis Obispo, California; her son is 2 and a half
INVEST FOR MY FAMILY’S FUTURE
“Being a mother — especially in the time of COVID, when we’ve all experienced change and loss in many areas — has taught me the importance of not taking anything for granted, being intentional with my finances and using money to invest in ways that will provide for my family for years to come.”
