It's nice to have a lady like this in your life.  Mine encourages me
every
so often as long as I'm not risking the house, retirement, etc.  Truth
be
told that my wife is a gamer - at least in the RPG sense although she's
said
she wants to try historical gaming soon (and without my prodding).

What a good attitude.  Several of our D&D'ers participate as husband &
wife
or husband, wife and child(ren) and it makes for some great gaming.
