A Good Old-Fashioned Family Tree

My sister gave my mother a framed picture of our family tree for Mother's Day. She was really excited.

"Oh look," she exclaimed, "now I can see how your father and I are related!"

What?!!!

All I can say is disturbing. Extremely disturbing.

No wonder it has taken me such a long time to post on my blog. The blogging receptor in my brain is probably damaged due to inbreeding and unable to respond to the hormone blog-inephrine.

This explains a lot.

There are some things you could go your whole life without knowing.

I wish this had been one of those things.

Okay, so they are only really distantly related through marriage - but you can imagine my initial horror.
