Nope, I called Mom with my question and she just heard the same
out-of-context phrase the rest of you did. She didn't ask about the rest
of the sentence--just answered the immediate question--as she was rushing
off to go gallivant with her dogpark friends and was presumably more
concerned about that than about my career as a concise and unredundant
writer...;)

She ~will~ be pleased to know that her reign of ultimate grammar dominion
extends beyond her children and onto the Internet...

Unredundantly,
