You and the Missus are angels right here on earth. I also work w/disadvantaged kids at a non-prof here in one of the poorest parts of CA, and I too have dreams for our young ones. Nice to see that dreams do come true! You've inspired me today! Thank you from the bottom of my heart.... you two are amazingly good people.
