F2F Class Notes 12th December (Selma)

Corrections

It is was a tiring weekend, because I had to play with my child all day long. She is very energetic. She would not let me stop playing with her. And she simply would not lose any of her energy. 

Every time I come to am at work, it is I feel more relaxed than at home.
