Aw come on. Have you ever tried to line up eight children?
You are lucky to get it done once.
At least three will be crying, several hungry, several have to go to the bathroom, several fighting. That's why you can't put Sally with anyone.
Several have already left while we are talking. A couple have taken off their clothes, and two are eating dirt.
