The first 3 years of the diary were kept by her mother, who attempted to write it in the language of her young daughter.) Kindergarten ’24-’25 First Day of School. My mama took me to school to- day. Some of the other mamas were there, too. One little boy cried when his mama left him. His name is Gerald Wagner. I didn’t cry. I like my teacher. Her name is Miss Flint. Second Week of School. I know all the names of the kids in Kindergarten. I will have mama write them down. They are Ear5 Becker, Dorothy Key, Ernest Madi- son, Wilma Mustard. Marvin Kluck, Carl Hoffer, Pauline Sanchez, Mild- red Smith, Jack Stumpff, Gerald Wagner. We all like to string beads. Earl Becker throws beads on the floor. I like to go to school. Our Christmas Party. We had a Christmas party today. There was a tree with pretty ’i-hts. We all sat around the tree and to'd what we wanted Santa Claus to bring. Mildred Smith got red in the face and wouldn’t tell what she wanted because she had to sit by a boy. It was Jack Stumpff. Mildred doesn’t like bovs but I do. After awhile Santa C'aus came. We were all excited and jumped up and down. Last Day of School. We had a picnic today. Miss Flint brought ice cream. We went with the first graders. We will be frst graders next year.
