Maybe This Is Where I Get It From (Mother's Day Post From My Mom)

Good morning Sam,

Last night I had a very long dream about Mother's day.  You drove from Boston to see me and bring my present, which was a baby whale.  The whale was about 2 1/2 feet long and just over a foot wide and you toted it in a sort of wash tub, without water.  You explained how to take care of it -  it had to be taken out of the tub once a day and given a bath or a shower.  It also used this opportunity when out of the tub to do its poop. The whale was very sweet, and just liked to be petted on its head.  I liked the whale, and was really impressed that you had gone to all the trouble to obtain it for me, but I just didn't think I could take care of it.  I didn't want to hurt your feelings, but in the end decided to tell you that you really would just have to take it back.  The dream lasted for a very long time.  While you were visiting me, we went places with the whale, such as the swimming pool at the JCC. That is about all I can remember.

Love,

Mom
