Dee only wanted to lord over them her superior intelligence and education, therefore boosting her own ego. Dee does not hide her shame for the way that her mother and Maggie live by writing “no matter where [they] “choose” to live, she will manage to come see [them]. But she will never bring her friends.” Dee's harsh criticisms are not just pointed at her mother and Maggie as can be seen when the narrator points out “When [Dee] was courting Jimmy T she didn't have much time to pay us, but turned all her faultfinding power on him.

Aminadab, who is not, mentioned much throughout this story but, he is just as important as Aylmer and Georgiana. He tells Aylmer, “If she were my wife, I’d never part with that birthmark.” This depicts the characteristic of Aminadab, a man of nature rather than a man of science. Therefore, his main flaw; he should have not departed from nature to work with a man of
Mrs. Delacroix, obviously a friend and neighbor of Tessie, who just moments before [the stoning] was laughing with Tessie about her forgetfulness, and reassuring her that she was fine for her tardiness. Later, her speedy selection of a “stone so large that she had to pick it up with both hands” reveals that the friendship was not as strong as her blind belief that the lottery was a just judge and her self-righteousness in not being chosen. The large stone was a symbol of
A baby would make it all better. Once again, I was wrong! Things continued to worsen but I did not allow this to in any way affect my pregnancies. My daughters became my number one priority in life. I quit wearing make-up because becoming a mom became a full time job.
