it’s possible!
yes! can you come to some place in ontario or maybe if i am pushing my luck, in toronto? cause it will be a less commuite for my mom and she won’t yell at me that much. i know it is up to your publisher, but can you buy he/she i don’t know some chocolates and a nice card underneath that asks to come to toronto?
