Jack will leave for town in two days. While he is away, I will try to show some more strictness with Cecily. She keeps dreaming just like these unconventional characters. I would be so glad if she would show interest on her lessons. Today, as usual, she went outside in the middle of her German grammar lesson. I can see that her education is not so important to her; she often speaks about some romantical dreams she has. In fact, I didn’t get married and this is may be why these thoughts she has never obsessed me. Education had always taken the major part of my time; I don't have much time for entertainment. If she doesn’t get back in ten minutes I’ll go get her. I guess a short break couldn’t be bad too. Maybe even Queen Victoria takes short breaks. Oh! What an example she is for us!
I don’t even know why I am writing a diary. Maybe I am losing memory with the years. What I might not forget is the moment when I lost Lord Bracknell’s baby. It marked my life; I would give my hand to find that child again.
Enough! I’m going for her.

RépondreSupprimerWhen I finally found her and got her eyes on the grammar book; she talked to me about the flowers that should get watered.
I wonder when will she takes her lessons seriously.
Absolutly I still take it seriously Miss! I just looked in the dictionary for an unknown German word. I know i spent too long on it, I should go try to improve myself, next time be sure I'll time myself.
RépondreSupprimerIf you work well you will improve yourself really fast. Jack would be so happy.
