Dear Diary

Amidst Steph's scrapbooking craze this afternoon, she found her old diaries. She has shown them to me before and let me cruise them. But somehow I missed this gem which she found today (and yes, she is letting me post this):

3/22/93 [11 years old]
Dear Diary,
My brother and sister just lost a tooth. I have 6 Cabbage Patches now. I don't like boys at all (yuk)! I don't understand them. I love my family. Even though we have a dog, I would like a small house dog of my own. I would like one for my birthday. I would like a small dog like a chihuahua. I love animals. I am getting to like reading a lot better. When I grow up I want to buy 5 acres of land out in the country. I want to have 4 cows, 10 horses, 12 chickens, 3 dogs, 1 cat, 20 kids, a husband and a goat. We would make everything, even the house, and we would home school the children.
Sincerely,
Stephanie

Glad to see I made it above the goat.

And 19 more babies? Uh, no.
