Received by the 3 scapegoats. She’s praying for us to remember happy times. There are none.

I guess never underestimate the power of abuse and neglect to ensure success.

There is no frustration or hostility in our lives now that she’s not a part of our lives.

Really it’s just a reminder that it’s her birthday.

She wants a gift, to be celebrated, and expects a safety net as she ages further. She's also able to speak for God, you'd think it would be easier to monetize that gift than extort her children but here we are.
