How did you hear about frugal village?
I heard about it through my mom. She's a member and loves it.

What will you contribute?
I'm such a newbie, we'll see...
Do you know any other members here?
Yep. claytonpiano is my mom
How many kids? Ages?
I've got three so far. Josh-2, Kathleen - 1, Karissa - 1. And we're in the process of adopting, so we'll keep you posted.
Tell us about yourself.
I'm a stay at home mom. Wife to a wonderful man. And I love to do anything creative.
Do you own any pets?
No, just moved into our first house right after the girls were born, and we didn't live anywhere that could have pets before then.

I am fairly new here too! I am learning so much and having a great time at it. I am trying not to jump in so deep that I end up drowing myself. I am making small steps. The things I notice now are what exactly I am spending my money on and how to get things on a budget!
Everyone here is knowledgeable and truly friendly!I love Lee!!
