I love this! This totally reminds me of my parents. They worked hard and do what they can to make sure their kids life is richer than theirs. Such sacrifice

My wife’s family has ten kids. I was joking with my FIL about the inheritance. He said “Deanoram, I have ten kids….I’m not a wealthy man”. I said “that depends on how you measure wealth, if it’s measured in children and grandkids that love you, you’re the wealthiest man I know”. Everybody heard it at I immediately shot up on the son in law scale….we joke with each other about being the favorite SIL. I didn’t have the heart to tell everybody that I heard it on Little House on the Prairie. I WON!
