Agree about the penmanship. secondwind Oct 2021 #3

Maybe she dictated this to an adult who deliberately tried to write like a child. tblue37 Oct 2021 #4

Right, I am questioning this as well. Irish_Dem Oct 2021 #5

I doubt a six year old wrote this. LisaL Oct 2021 #6

I'm ready now, not quite 100. Like her comment above about love too. Hoyt Oct 2021 #2
