Aaron with his son, Jonathan
We just had a baby, our third, and will be using every penny of our $1,800 to help cover maybe a third of my wife's unpaid maternity leave.
The check couldn't come at a better time, as we've recently had to cough up more than $4,000 in costly repairs.
One upside...with my wife at home for a few weeks and not commuting, (I work from home), we will save a bit on gas.
