I am a 28 year old first time mom, my fiancé is 35, we have a daughter and he blessed me with two beautiful bonus daughters as well.
The last few years have been difficult for everyone. We have managed through family court, long distance travel expenses, uninsured medical needs, and day to day expenses. Sometimes this managing involved borrowing or financing.
Once our newest addition joined the family, the hardships brought on with reduced pay from maternity leave got a little heavier. We’ve recently made the big decision to move closer to our older kids, and with that we are aiming to tackle the remaining debt we have.
Our youngest also chose to be born on Christmas Eve, which adds some strain to the holiday finances that are already stretched thin. So anything in addition to the debt pay off would be used to ensure our daughter gets an amazing first Birthday party.
