Also, I am the exact same way when it comes to hoarding stuff. One day, I will need to produce a copy of every report card from kindergarten through eighth grade in order to win a million dollars and take the crown as Queen of Americaland. In my first royal speech, I will tell my mother, "HA. I told you I needed that stuff."

You've come a long way, baby. My 10-year-old daughter writes all the time. Poems, notes, lists, stories. She copies her favorite quotes into notebooks. She reads constantly. My son finds writing a form of punishment. The freshman writing is truly insufferable. You’ve come a long way, baby.
