Oh, and when the time comes, I s’pose I’ll have to find a way to warmly welcome whomever she brings home. Girl or boy or both. Devil take the hindmost. Long as they call me sir, and ask “How high?” when I say jump.

Gosh, your little girl is very articulate! After spending the whole week with first-graders who seem to go like this when they want something “I aoiwjknxv,zvsadf!” despite my excellently-honed child-to-adult translation powers, I appreciate a girl who can explain the allure of a good pair of scissors.

And as to queerspawn: Sister o sister! Are you kiddin’?

It helps that the beloved (slash Mama) is queerspawn, too (a bothie!). She even has a t-shirt. I’m going to really shove the girlchild toward heterosexuality when the time comes, though, because a third generation of wimmin-lovin’ wimmin would just be too treacly and hard-to-be-believed at pride parades.

Oh dear, that sounds more negative than I meant. I’m sure your daughter will have a great time in school.

note: If you don’t like the term “queerspawn,” I can avoid doing it, I just felt it fit for me. Drop me a line or such.
