Thanks for sharing all this with us, that is such a sweet amd inspiring story! Congratulations for all your efforts to integrate your new homeland. You are clearly a hard worker and I, too, admire your tenacity. Btw, there are a lot of jobs in the US for people who know French fluently, dont forget your languages will come in handy eventually.

Je vous souhaite beaucoup de bonheur et succes a vous et votre epouse! :thumbs: (wishing you lots of happiness to you and your spouse)
