Having a wife by your side who inspires you, supports you, and fights alongside you really makes a difference.

When we were just the two of us, we valued money and things, but not as much. When our first child was born, we started to think more carefully about what we spent, and then our second child, who has Down syndrome, was born, and then we really started to value every penny.

I think it's because when we're young, we don't think much about the future, or about the possibility of an illness, accident, etc., coming into our lives.
