Would you rather me downsize mine to one?
Emma wrote: "Would you rather me downsize mine to one?"You're entitled to as many guesses as you like...

Dorothy wrote: "...and they don't HAVE to be correct!"🤨 How do you get to do the next question if they're not correct??

I definitely agree with Kate Douglas Wiggin.
Parents have nine months to choose

How would parents like it if people
addressed them as "Hey, you?"
