I Love My Famaly: On This Day in 2004

Here is something I wrote on this day when I was in first grade. I am including a translation (in case you don't speak first grader) and some analysis after my transcription of the journal entry.

Translation:

I love my family. Every person in the world has a family. If someone doesn't have a family, that is trouble. Do you love your family? Does your family love you? I hope you love your family a lot. Last night I played Scrabble with my mom and dad. I love my little [sister?].

Analysis:
I love that I chose to use words that I (mostly) knew how to spell in this entry. I don't think current me would ever ask so many questions of a stranger reading my family. Like, "Hi! It's so great to meet you! My name is Lydia. Do you love your family? Does your family love you? I hope you love your family!".

I hope you enjoyed this post! 
<3 Lydia
