Turns out the Missus was reading a book to the girls about "Life in America 100 years ago" - it dealt with the life of the rich, the poor, and the "middle class." I guess this was explained as not having too much money and not having to little money.
Smart she may be, but note that she didn't say whether we are lower- or upper-middle class. Don't worry - we'll get her started on Marx right away.
What a wise little girl.
