Seven-year-old writes a very blunt sympathy card for her teacher

Look, we can all admit we look back on things we did as kids and absolutely cringe, but one woman has shared her mortifying story on TikTok. 
Lindsay Schraad Keeling revealed she wrote a sympathy card back when she was just seven for a teacher and it’s absolutely hilarious. 
The author explained that she wrote the card after they were told that their computer teacher’s mother had passed away by their substitute teacher for the day.

“We had a substitute teacher that day and we were told by the principal that our regular teacher’s mother had passed away. He did not assign us to colour any pictures or make anything for our teacher, but apparently I decided to do so anyway,” she told Today.com. 
The 32-year-old explained she was a very emotional child and at the time just wanted to do something nice for the teacher. 
But, as you can imagine, the card was very blunt. 
“I am so sory computer teacher that your mom had to die sory. But evry body hast to die some day and today it was your moms turn to die. Love love is in your hart,” read the inside of the card.

The card, which was more of a booklet of pages, had plenty of little spelling errors and also included some drawings. 
“I’m sure I was very proud of it, because I excitedly showed it to my mother — who was wise enough to gently take it from me so I couldn’t give it to my teacher,” she explained. 
She shared the card on TikTok alongside what can only be called ‘sad Sponge Bob music’ and it’s been viewed over 3.1 million times. 
People cannot get enough of the morbid card and had a lot to say in the comments. 
“If i was your teacher, that honestly would have made me feel better,” one person wrote in the comments. 
Another added, “Ain’t no sympathy card. It’s a sympathy book.” 
“‘And today it was your moms turn to die’ is INSANE LOL,” added another. 
One person added, “My favourite part is that her name is just computer teacher.”
