I change the text, says I'm wrong. I copy and paste my own code in, says I'm wrong. What am I doing wrong?

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.

activity_main.xml 
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="match_parent" >

  <TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
    android:layout_centerVertical="true"
    android:text="Did you know?"
    android:textSize="16sp" />

</RelativeLayout>

Make sure the android:text attribute looks exactly like this:

android:text="Treehouse loves me!"
