New Parents and Grandparents: Dependents make all the difference
Every day new parents and new grandparents are born! It's a magical, busy, exhausting time for all involved.
It can also be a very stressful time for families once the realities of parenthood (and grandparenthood) sink in. Much has changed in the 25-30 years since the parents were babies themselves and the grandparents were actively involved with newborns themselves.
Our Special Needs Planning Seminar will be held on June 7th, 2016. Feel free to bring along a friend, co-worker or family member that you feel may benefit from the information we are sharing.

Tip of the Month - Make a Shopping List
One of the easiest ways to save money is to only shop when you have a list. When you are without one, you typically end up making impulse buys and unplanned purchases.
Creating a list before you go to the grocery store is especially important. Not only can it help you buy items that fit with your meal plan, it can also help avoid buying food you might waste.
Always create a list and more importantly
- stick to it!
