Dear Diary,
Mama says that we are going to move into a smaller home just until Papa makes some more money. I didn't mind a smaller house, but the people in our neighborhood are terrible! The fist time I went for a walk a boy triped me! And if you can believe this I fell in the mud! I rushed back to Mama and told her what happened. All shesaid was '' I didn't tell you this move would be fair. Go rinse your dress abound back, and hang it up to dry.''She didn't even tell me she would make sure that boy got in trouble for tripping me!I just can't believe what I see.
