[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher married to a man who is also a teacher.  I married him because he's awesome.  He is utterly and completely devoted to me and our children.  He is an amazing teacher who loves his students.  He takes care of his aging parents.  He does at least half the work around the house and in our lives.  He is hands down the kindest person I've ever met.

We have two children and yes, we've had our share of hard times, financial and otherwise.  But we've never gone hungry, never had to live in a homeless shelter.  Not that there's anything wrong with that, I'm just saying, we have always had every single thing we need.  We have some of what we want.  I honestly think that choosing a mate based on income is foolish.  Marriage and life is not about money.  It's about acceptance and kindness.  And of course, there are people with 6 figure incomes who are also kind and loving and have good marriages.  But this obsession with money and status is turn off.  I want my life and my marriage to be about more than nice vacations and brand name schools for our kids.  Our lives need to mean more than that.  Loving each other, loving other people and serving others are what we are about.[/quote]

Bravo. Thank you both for all you do for the next generations.[/quote]
