Dear Diary,
Guess what! Matty is back! I am so exited! We are going to the fair later with Candice. It will be very fun as we can go on the big rides now we are taller.
Also, Beatrix (our sister in Florida) posted us a letter and some candy! The letter read: Dear little ones, My life in Florida is great and I finally got the child I always hoped for! Her name is Jemima. One night soon I will give you a surprise... Lots of love, your big sister, Beatrix and your niece Jem. XXXXXXXXXXXX
The letter we recited was lovely and now I am an Aunty! Wow! I am very exited to get our surprise! What could it be?
The telephone rang earlier and it Miss Marvel from the Hide Hill Boarding Academy. She said: "I am ringing to say that Matthew is doing well in school and that he is very smart. I hope to see him re-enrolled for next year!"
Oh dear! I must go Candice is shouting us. I'm off to the fair. I'll tell you all about it tomorrow! I can't wait till I go on the ferris wheel! From Eliza xx
