Dear Diary,
Yesterday was Christmas. I got a guitar AND an
art set! I’ve been asking for years for those 2! Then mom gave me one more
present: this journal. She said it would be good if I could write down my
feelings. She says I have anger problems, but really, I just need to vent. A
lot. Anyway, this year was a really special Christmas. Now that Mom’s working
2 jobs, we all got what we wanted. Even Oliver! That beagle was so excited with
his new bed and toys! And just seeing Jayla and Jericho and little Cara so happy
that Santa came was the best Christmas gift for me. Almost. It wasn’t quite as
good as the gift I got from an unlikely friend of the TRUE meaning of
Christmas. I don’t know how I celebrated every year without knowing. It all
started along with school in August…
