Mother's Day ecard: Thank you for not sending me down a river in a basket made from reeds so that I might be found by a Childless Queen and raised in that strange, distant realm to be a great and terrible leader of men.

About This Card

I’m not allowed to celebrate Mother’s Day with Mother, so each year I make a life-sized doll, you see, and I sit with her at the table and we make tea and I bring her favorite cigarettes and liquorice. When it is over I take her outside and set her on fire. Without traditions we would all be lost.

from the newsletter

I will not school my daughters on the finer points of dark chicanery. If they wish to win arguments, outwit foes, vex opponents, or hoodwink adversaries, they're going to have to figure it all out on their own. Because I've seen the Star Wars movies. I know what happens to the Sith when they take on apprentices.
