I'm sending it to the New York State Education Department as a sample of age-appropriate writing. Perhaps it can be graded, and then used as part of a scoring rubric. I have omitted the names and a date:<br /><br /><br />__________, the woman who takes care of me, has skin on the bottom of her feet that was peeling. And it came off today. And she put ointment, and then she put Epsom Salt and soaked them.<br /><br /> And on __________, that is my birthday. And maybe Uncle __________ and Cousin __________ are coming to my birthday party. Then they are going to sing "Happy Birthday" to me. Then I'm going to blow out the candles and maybe the people are going home. Then I'll go to sleep.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8515738343772337569.post-31016509891096749582013-08-22T00:02:24.006-04:002013-08-22T00:02:24.006-04:00Hilarious and very well put.
