I'm 8 now. Paige has been happy for a long time since she became boyfriend - girlfriend with Sam. She really likes him. I think he's awesome too. But mummy and daddy hate him. We don't know why though. Mummy and daddy told her she can't see him anymore. She got really upset and ran to the bathroom. I heard her cry and knew what was happening. When she came out she was still crying. She got out her book and wrote:

**********

I'm sorry
Dear parents, I'm sorry I much a disappointment. I'm sorry I can't make good enough grades. I'm sorry I can't live up to your expectations.
Dear friends, I'm sorry I cant keep a long term friendship with any of you. I'm sorry we lose connection after a while. I'm sorry I never stayed.
Dear people at my school, I'm so sorry I'm weird. I'm sorry I don't fit in. I'm sorry I don't look pretty like all you.
Dear myself, I'm sorry I was ever born. I'm sorry I hurt you. I'm sorry I put you down. I'm sorry I made you miserable.

I told her not to ever say sorry, especially for being herself. But she's never been one to listen to anything.

I love her
