I wasn't going to add to this, because of the personal nature of it all, but
I will.

We have been on WIC for the past 8 years.  I was pregnant when we got on it.
my husband was in the army and I was a SAHM.  My daughter remained on it
till 5 y/o.  At that time I was pregnant with my son and he's now been on it
for his entire life.  We are a family of 4, one income, and my dh makes a
decent living.

I am thankful we have it.  Milk, cheese, eggs, and all the other things they
provide are getting more and more expensive.  It sure does help.

We were also on Medicaid when I was pregnant with my son and the kids are
both on it now.
