dear hannah,

this morning…while we were working through those lessons…i needed to remind you…

that every sentence should always start with a capital…and always end with a period…

“so that your reader doesn’t get confused at what you’re trying to say…”

and i gestured “for example” as i turned towards this blog…

“like my blog…” i began…my eyes locking…right on to it…

and…oh…my…

and i turned back all sheepish…

and we two just giggled!

and then…“never mind…bad example…”

and…aren’t i though!

very sincerely,
me (your always-with-the-“do-as-i-say-and-not-as-i-do” mama)
