In these candidly witty and poignant essays, comedienne and writer
Julia Sweeney muses on the complex blessings of motherhood:
deciding to adopt her daughter, a Chinese girl named Mulan ("After
the movie?"); nannies (including the Chinese Pat); being adopted by
a dog; and meeting Mr. Right through an email from a complete
stranger who wrote, "Desperately Seeking Sweeney-in-Law." She
recounts how she explained the facts of life to nine-year-old
Mulan, a story that became a wildly popular TED talk and YouTube
video. But no matter what the topic, Julia always writes with
elegant precision, pinning her jokes with razor-sharp observations
while articulating feelings that we all share.
