Mother’s Day ‘12 - Fetus Edition
This is the final post of the day. As always, I try to save the best for last, and I consider a fetus’s Mother’s Day card to be a real gem of a submission, not to mention a telling sign of the times. The status update itself was written by the fetus’s grandmother, who is thrilled that her daughter received such a sweet note from her unborn baby still cookin’ in the womb. I mean, sure, Wendy wrote the card herself, but how thoughtful is that little “baby girl”? Pretty much the most thoughtful not-yet-fully-developed baby ever if you ask me!!
This card symbolizes so much of what is right and wrong in this world. The pros are that Krista has a mom who loves her, a baby on the way who will be equally as loved, and a card that defies science and reason, which is impressive. The cons, however, are everything else. Facebook-ing fetuses, handwritten cards from cellular blobs…what are we even talking about at this point? I can only imagine what next year’s submissions will include. Will JibJab create “talking fetus” cards? Just upload your sonogram and your fetus will talk to you like a dog in a commercial or an elf around Christmas! Share it on Facebook! Make it dance to the Bee Gees!

Whatever happens, I’ll be here to document it. Thanks for spending this Mother’s Day with me, everyone!
