To see part one, go to Helpers and Hints with the 3 R's + more ~Part 1~
These helpers or hints have helped me tremendously. I just love cute little sayings that help me remember English, Spelling and Arithmetic rules. Please feel free to respond if you have others {PLEASE RESPOND, I need extra helpers}. I will have at least 7 parts and 7 hints each time. ( 7 happens to be my favorite number. I also have 77 ways to save or spend less. There are also 7 people in our family. I could go on and on with the number 7. )

2 Loving Comments:
Please continue to include Pluto with the planets, as the statement that "Pluto is officially not a planet" is not quite true. Four percent of the International Astronomical Union, in August 2006, voted on a controversial planet definition that excluded Pluto. Their decision was immediately rejected by hundreds of professional astronomers led by Dr. Alan Stern, Principal Investigator of NASA's New Horizons mission to Pluto. This is very much an ongoing debate, and the claim that "Pluto is no longer a planet" is not fact but one interpretation in an ongoing controversy. Scientists like Stern count Pluto as a planet since it orbits the sun and is in a state of hydrostatic equilibrium, meaning it is large enough for its own gravity to have pulled it into a round shape.
If you are dropping Pluto, how about just say "Neptune" to end it?
