Dear Diary,


Yesterday, as soon as I was dressed, we went to church

before we started our day.


First, Mother taught me how look after a house and a

family.


Next, my tutor taught me maths, latin and religion. Mother

said I am very lucky to have a tutor, but the lessons can

be very boring.


After that, my mother taught me how to prepare for a

feast.


Then, I learned sewing and embroidery. I pricked my finger

and it bled.


Eventually, I was allowed to take a walk in the garden,

even though I had to take a servant with me. I saw my

father and my brother playing lawn bowls. We love sports,

so I asked to join in.


Finally, it was time to eat. Lots of people had been invited

to the feast. A jester entertained us all with songs and

jokes. It was fun, but I was tired and glad to go to bed.
