Dear Ellen,
Nature, like babies, can somehow be both terrifying and beautiful at the same time.

The text of the postcard is
Dear Ellen,
Remember the old ‘cotton – the fabric of our lives’ ad? If I was silk (and I recognize that’s a weird statement) I would have a rebuttal ad, ‘silk – the fabric of the life you wish you had.’ After all, it’s a well known fact that silk is cotton’s wealthy aunt.
