                Dear Diary,

Aren't you going to greet me? It's my 4th birthday! Happy birthday to me!

Well, it's almost bedtime, and I'm a little sleepy, but I'll tell you everything, Diary!

See, today is my birthday, and Daddy got me a gift. Guess what it is? It's you, Diary! I wanted you for a long time now, and Daddy gave you to me! I remember pointing to him this pretty pink notebook when I was 3 years old. Daddy told me he'd buy it for me once I've learned how to write.

I worked so hard to learn how to write. Mum even almost got mad at me for annoying her too much to teach me. My Mum's really nice, Diary. She taught me how to spell too! She says I'm a smart little girl, and she smiles so pretty when she says that. I did that all for you, Diary! Oh, and of course to make my parents proud of me.

Especially Daddy. He's almost never around. I miss him a lot, but I guess that's what happens when your Daddy works so hard to give her little girl everything she wants. Even if Daddy's always away, I love him so much. He always calls me and Mum to tell us he loves us so much. I cry when I miss Daddy, but you know how it feels, right Diary? You're away from your Mum and Daddy, and that's harder!

I'm so lucky with my Mum and Daddy. They both have good voices. They sing together, and it makes me feel like Heaven sent me angels! Thank you, Papa Jesus. Or Allah. Sometimes Daddy calls Him Allah. It's cool. I feel like I have two Heavens watching over me, and thank you to Mum and Daddy for that!

Diary, I'm really sleepy now. My eyes are going to close. I'll talk to you soon, okay?
