June 10, 2010

Dearest Diary,

I received this morning by post notification that a dear friend has come under new employment and had hoped to celebrate with a visit to the Disney estate. That is where much of the afternoon was therefore spent. And as evening drew near, it became necessary to journey once again to the Jervey Mansion that a music lesson might be given.

The real joy of the evening, however came two hours past twelve when Sister and I were able to keep Mother and Father awake into such hours in order that our youngest of aunts might make haste to join us in celebrating a certain anniversary. Were it known to Mother and Father that such a guest would arrive, the moment of the carriage's appearance would not have been as much an excitement. Mother of course shed some tears of joy and Father was also astounded. To have carried such a surprise off without a hitch was a rare accomplishment indeed. I am quite pleased to have done it so well.

Unfortunately, the morning will arrive early tomorrow...
