2     Jenny put all her tee shirts on her bed. She had an orange one. There was a blue and green one. There was a white one with little pink flowers on it. There was a purple and blue one. Jenny counted her tee shirts. She had fifteen tee shirts!
 
3     Every day Jenny counted her skirts, sweaters, shirts, dresses, jeans, shorts, coats, jackets, and sweatshirts. On Saturday, Jenny counted her sandals, scarves, boots, gloves, mittens, hats, and belts. Jenny loved clothes!
