During my husband’s time as an older student, we didn’t have much money for our family of seven. At a friend’s wedding, my four-year-old daughter was sitting next to me when the minister asked, "Do you take this man for better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health?’

Our daughter turned to me and whispered loudly, "You chose poorer, didn’t you Mommy?"
