It was nise then but then she had to go help her father and it got raelly raelly hot out. My dress felt like it wayed a hundred ponds and I kept sweting. Laurel sed she didnt like it ether. It was too hot too even doo anything but sit don!

I raelly didnt like it. I like summer somtimes but not wen its hot like it was tooday!

I thot mabe Mommy wood yell at me but I dont no if she even saw wat I rote. Thats god. Shes ben raelly buzy with Lord Thomas and Tessa and even Laurel so it makes sens that she didnt.

Mabe I shudnt have siad it anyway but I raelly dont get it. I wish I cod do the things that Ariel dos. Shes raelly good at them. Maybee I wood be to. I like horses. She doesnt hav to worry abuot runing her dresses or her sheos and it doesnt matter that she cant dans very god or that she isnt good at raeding somtimes.

Wy cant I do wat Im good at insted of having to do the things that Im not god at even tho Im not good at them?

I ralely shouldnt think like this.
