A sentence’s main subject is usually one of the following:

b. A pronoun (a word that replaces a noun—he, she, it, they,

subjects.
a. One subject: Kayla is my first daughter.
b. Two subjects: Kayla and Cami are my first two daughters.
c. Three subjects: Kayla, Cami, and Kara are my daughters.

sentence have another subject. However, most of your sentences will have
only one subject until you are at a more advanced level of writing.
