Our Story:

My name is Stacy Greenleaf. I am 36 years old and a mom of 6 children. 3 through birth and 3 through foster care adoption. I did foster care from May 2007 till Novemeber 2011 and have provided care for 8 children in that time. I have been married to my husband Terry for 16 years. We are a one income household and I am always looking for ways to save money. People refer to me as a stay at home mom, though I'm always going somewhere! Three of our children have diagnosed disabilities and are receiving several services. In home, at school and by many doctors, specialist, counselors and Phyciatrist's. My life is never dull, and though I'm always looking to improve it I would'nt change a thing! Welcome to my crazy, happy life!







Topics of discussion include but are not limited to:

Raising a large family in this economy, tips for raising children with ADHD, SPD, PDD, Autism, XYY Syndrome, Tourettes, OCD, Anxiety ect. Adoption, Foster Care, frugal, thrifty living, living healthy on less and recipes! Not only do I live these things everyday and want to share what I have learned with you, I am always looking for information on these subjects as well! Welcome and I hope you enjoy my Blog. Most people find my life hysterical, as do I most days!

Happy Back to School After Christmas Break Day!

Yay! The older kids went back to school today! Connor will go in a little while and it will just be and the girls! I am very excited! It was a crazier than normal vacation this time around!
I am really looking forward to getting back into our school time routine.
I got my calender out and up. I am really hoping the New Year will bring less appointments! My goal is no more than 3 a week and by summer have it down to 2 or less!
I'm still searching for a good budget program. Currently I am using my own, but that makes me nervous because that's what I have done in the past without success! This isn't my first time around the budget tree! :)
Now that I have shared all these ideas over the last few weeks, its time to actually implement them and stick to my plan when confronted! This is NOT easy for me! And the reason for my failure in the past! I am not taken seriously for this reason!
Time to put on my big girl panties and hold my ground! :)

I must go get Conny ready for school, but keep connected, I have some awesome ideas to share! Have a great Tuesday all!
