Dear wondering,
Whoever wrote this piece on his/her mother, ( I didn't)
had a mother who was not Einstein, but was a caring, loving MOTHER.
You don't have to be Einstein to have common
sense and to do your best to raise
your child. But I should not assume that you have any,
or that you know what it is to be a mother.
