Porter came home from school yesterday...
"Mom, a boy at recess said that his step-dad and mom are rich. Are we rich, too? What's being rich?"
"Rich is when you have a lot of something. Like Aunt Arlissa's chocolate cakes are 'rich' because they have a lot of chocolate in them."
"Oh! Then we are rich!"
"Yeah? We are, huh?"
"Yeah, because we have a lot of love."
"Yeah. We are. Huh."

Oh, my gosh. That's one of those moments when you can pat yourself on the back 'cuz you know you're doing something right. Great answer, from you and from Porter. Good job, Molly, you are an awesome mom.
