The mothers days day after I had a baby, they sent me a book in the mail about a boy and a dog (I think the dogs name was Otto) celebrating mothers. It was weird but historically accurate. They said that one of the founding fathers mother was a good mother because she taught the founding fathers the bible. Im not sure what to do with the book... Donate it?

I love animals. I hate mosquitoes. If one gets in my house I'll hunt it down and smash it gleefully. Then apologize and tell it I feel bad because it didn't choose to be born a mosquito

Same for this book. I love books and feel they should be respected, but perhaps this one is like a mosquito and maybe should be disposed of into the recycling

They certainly shouldn't complain about reciprocity. They will though.

Send them another book, "The Wright Brothers". At least their mom was an awesome lady, a goddamn mechanical engineer, and a college graduate. She taught them how to bang on and tinker with stuff and ta-da now we have airplanes.
