Work at last!

Dear Diary,

This is my last page, so I have to write carefully. Today we began to bundle asparagus. It was strange, having my auburn hair fall in my face as I worked. Sally said to tie it up next time. Dad got back from the field sweaty and coughing. I hope he hasn't caught anything.
Earlier this evening, I found a bundle of roses for me. Three guesses about who it's from. Yes, it was Isaac. Sigh, sigh.

Signing for the last time,
Kate.
