I haven't had a single moment for writing since the holidays at least, I've been so awfully busy with parties and that! One of Daddy's friends even had a New Year's party the night before last, can you imagine? Who throws a party for New Year's a week after it's happened? My, older people can be strange sometimes. Of course I would never insult one of Daddy's friends, but Daddy didn't understand it himself! And the whole situation wasn't made any less absurd by this silly curfew. Ten pm! How can anybody do anything before ten pm? We might as well not have had any parties this holiday at all! Though that would have been awfully sad, really. I suppose sad, early parties are better than none at all. Anyway, I saw the nicest dress at this last one, it was bright yellow like the middle of a daffodil and all gathered and just so pretty. I wish it had been mine, but I just wore my green silk again because I do love it and this party wasn't the sort you have to wear something new. I should have had something new anyway, now that I think. Pretty soon I won't be able to fit into anything nice at all for months and months.

But the parties are over now, anyway. So here I am!

Oh my, Baby is kicking today. I wish she wouldn't, I'd love a nap.
