I remember the kids in the neighborhood saying they thought we were rich because we ate by candle light almost every night. Yeah, when mom used to cook for a family of 5 and we all sat down to eat together. Imagine that. Mom was a classy chick that enjoyed candles, soft music, and loved her family. I was delivering papers daily on my bike at age 9 and saved over $100 with Christmas bonus from customers. Dad asked if he could borrow it to pay the rent. Yeah we were rich with family values. To this day I don't believe he ever paid me back. Didn't matter. I made sure they had no wants in their later years.
