when i was 9 years old i received a sindy (barbie equivalent) bureau, id wanted the desk for ages, wow what a wonderful christmas present it was. inside the miniature desk were tiny stationary objects, the diary above being one of them. a few years ago i, just before i became unwell i had a clear out of all my stuff in the loft. i came across the bureau, this is what i found inside.
can you imagine a nine year old child writing this?. what an earth was going through my mind?

The things a young mind concerns itself with eh. Such a tiny Testament. Was it yours or something you transcribed for Barbie I wonder ...
PS ... that squirrel made me laugh Em - very sweet, very funny, and a fine metaphor.
hi diver
whatever was going through my mind! pretty sweet squirrel, rosie chases them, she hasnt caught one yet, thank goodness. metaphor diver? im a bit slow on the uptake.x
Hi Em,
That is a great find. I'd love to find to find something from that age. About what you wrote, my 7 year old could have written that now. That is the sort of thing she writes in her little pads so I can relate to it.
Love the squirrel too.
All the best

Sorry Em ... squirrels are famous for their sweet natured furtiveness, sort-of 'anxious'. They seem to me an appropriate mascot for an anxiety blogger, that's all ... meaningful art bla bla.

hi diver
im so slowwww, really at times can be embarrassing! thanks for explaining. x
hi nechtan
just by accident really i came across this little gem. if i had been clearing out i would never of stumbled across it. your little ones do the same, do you keep a little box of the drawings? the special ones perhaps. would be a nice keepsake in the future. x
