was working days and going to school at night and weekends.Mommy was working nights so we were sort of having a rough time.Not seeing enough of each other.So you were the way to bring us back together.We chose to have Mommy quit working.By doing so,I lost R2D2 and got back my truly perfect wife.”“It allowed us to focus on each other and our finally plete family.I also had to go to school for three months.Being away from your mom and my kids tore the heart out of me.You three kids are our personalities all wrapped up:our heart,soul,humor,kindness,respect,honesty and a million other neat stuff about us.We would not be the same without everyone we have.”“And it keeps growing.Ive had the perfect life because of your mom.Give me one billion dollars.Make me president.None of those
