Being in the United States (forgive me, as I'm not up on all the recent law changes), are you legally married to your wife, or is it more of a common law marriage? More power to you and your significant other either way! (=
I gladly accept your generous blessings ^_^ , and absolutely will take the advice on methods of teaching.

As for our marraige, it is a common law marraige of six years, although we are thinking of travelling to romantic Vermont to have a legal civil union. Unfortunately for us *weeps*, it will not be recognized here in Colorado. At one point, we even considered options of moving to Canada, but there was just too much paperwork for our taste.
