Creature of the Night?

Dear Rhys,

Remember earlier today when you fell and bit your lip?  I have some concerns stemming from the aftermath of that event.  As you recall, your lip bled a little bit.  Shortly after the bleeding stopped, you entered a frenzy lasting several minutes during which you constantly tried to bite me.  I know that my overactive imagination will give me no rest until I know the answer to the following question.  Are you a vampire?

Love,
Mommy

Stereotypes

Dear Rhys,

Similar to my feelings about your sister's comments about my driving, please stop encouraging Asian stereotypes.  Apparently, neither of you realize that you are a quarter Asian yourselves.  With that said, please know that the tears and screaming on the bus and skytrain were unwarranted.  None of the Asian ladies who exited before our stop were me abandoning you.  Not all Asians look alike, so please stop acting like they do.

Love,
Mommy
