Besides the disturbing thought that a freshman in high school can't read a standard watch, my niece actually had picked the darned thing out!
ETA- these thank you notes came from different nieces- they are sisters though!

When I went to Walt Disney World for my 40th birthday, I got all the nieces and nephews gifts - and my then-childless brother's dog a gift, too. The only thank you note I got? From the dog.
