And They Birthed Queens

I was raised under the tutelage of a gentle yet stern proper Southern Belle, my mother. She continuously told me as a child, "You will be a lady even if it kills me." Her partner in molding, my father, taught me to choose quality over quantity, always keep a job, and never depend on anyone. My idol growing up was the ever astute, classy, polished, refined, and clever Claire Huxtable. I wanted to be just like her. My mother was raising a proper woman, my dad a go-getter, and I was intrinsically attracted to what was already inside of me. All of that formed not just any ol' lady...but a Queen Lady. I'll teach you some of what I know. Come...sip and sup with me.
