Alabama, Grade: 6

Dear Diary,
Today my father has just come in the house he told us he lost all the money they had.My mother wanted to know how my father said the stock market crashed that's how. Then last night I heard them arguing about why they put the money in credit? I then heard my father talking about getting a job my mother too.The next day I saw people outside our home begging for work they didn't care what it was my mother and father agreed ,but they will pay him by feeding him he agreed.My father came home we asked'' how did it go'' he said ''very bad there are even bread lines''.Where is mom we asked ? Then she came I,and said I finally got me a job. I was so happy, but then I asked myself what will be of tomorrow?
