Today has been another of the splendid ones. We have had lots of fun. We played at P.O. again today. I had a good geography lesson and so did the rest. We all feel so much better when we have good lessons. I saw the prettiest bird I ever saw It was a bright red with brown tail & wings. I never saw one before. Isbduydf nbmft qfs fdu.
