Beginning January 17th our young author begins: "Well little diary today is Sun. and I have started telling you my secrets after having you for about two years….I wasn't late for school this morning for a wonder." While Iris only writes through until May 21st she manages to paint a lovely picture of her life at the time. Lots of work, whether school or chores, tending children but lots of fun sleigh riding, socials, playing cards and much more or as Iris herself writes typically: "Went to school as usual. Then Arline came down for me to wave her hair. She had it cut 'wind and down' then I went up to the library with Frity."
