We know its working when things like this happen
- My Special Person.
- It is a girl. She is 70. She has glasses.
She moves like me. She wears cool clothes. She
has curly hair. Her skin is white. - Shes at our house for two nights. She is
the best. She does not work. She walks really
slowly. She has an injured leg. - If I saw Barbs today she would say Hi Sam
and cuddle me and I would say a virtue. Love. I
would say I love you and she would say Hi. - By Sam age 7
