7. spectacular: This word was misspelled.
happy birthday, Richard: Happy birthday is only capitalized when it stands alone as in Happy Birthday, Richard. If it is within a sentence, it should be in lowercase. A comma goes before Richard because it is a direct address, and Richard is capitalized because it is a proper noun.
it’s: It’s is a contraction of it is or it has. Its is the possessive form of it.
shovel…driveway? : These two words were misspelled. A question is asked, so a question mark should also appear at the end of the sentence.
spectacular: This word was misspelled.
day, and: A comma is used to separate two sentences with a conjunction (and).
you’re: You’re is a contraction of you are. Your is the possessive form.
