Dear Diary,

Today we had to study for our spelling test. It was okay I guess…..(not my favorite obviously) Anyway, when I got home my mom’s apple pie was waiting for me. It tasted delicious. Something else (someone else I should say) was waiting for me. My Aunt Amelia and Uncle Victor came to visit along with my baby cousin Lilly. I was thrilled! Lilly which I call my little Lila or Flora, was just as excited. She immediately recognized me and made her way over to me. Oh, I’m just delighted! They are staying with us for a week. And there’s another secret….. But for now I must go. I want to show Lila the nearby pond.
