December 25th, 1966
The older girls were right! We spent the whole day in and out of the church, reading and rereading various parts of the bible all day long. I can’t think of anything more boring, except maybe one of Sister Janet’s lecture about chores. Sister Janet can go on and on for hours if we don’t do everything perfectly on the first time. I much prefer Sister Rose to be supervising us while we work.
Hopefully, New Years will be better.
