You are somewhat independent already, Shug!

Thing1 says, "Thank you, Mr. Emery!"

Thanks, she says.

[...every time I make a kid do something, they resist. Tell them they can read it when they get older!]

Thank you from Thing1. [She reads constantly, but, surprisingly, her spelling is atrocious!]

We will have to do that... good idea! Make a copy and pass it around to all the hangs, collecting signatures from as many hangers as we can!

Thank you, sir!

Thing1 says "Thank you, 2Q!" I wonder if I can get her to recite it on video...

Amazing work for anybody much less an EIGHTH GRADER! The both of you should be very proud!
When I grow up, I want to be as smart and talented a writer as Thing1...
