Oh, the frustration of it all! Andrea is learning how to write a simple sentence in English. The instructions are easy: start the sentence with a capital letter, end with a period or question mark. Poor Andrea! She wrote the sentences. Again and again. One of the sentences was a question starting with the word "how" She didn't capitalize it. Six times she was sent back to capitalize it with a break to write the alphabet in both types of letters. This is how she solved the problem:
h
I'm sorry, I had to hide to keep from cracking up! A bigger "h" is a capital letter! Oh my goodness! She was in tears and Rob and I were hiding . . .
I know she thinks we are awful, but Mexico never taught her punctuation and now we have to deal with it. Pray for us, please - she's got a lot of sentences to write.
