Diary Entry

Dear Diary,

                  Scary thoughts keep going through my mind. The scary soldiers around every corner, and Ellen hiding with my family. What if we get caught? Will we have to go away? Those questions are stuck in my mind. I can’t help but think what would have happened if we didn’t take in Ellen. Will they notice? I hope not. My chest hurts as I think about it. As much as I don’t want to get caught I would hate to wonder what would happen to the Rosens if the soldiers got a hold of them.

        Every little thing that could go wrong over runs my mind. My heart races just at the thought of getting taken away. All of this confusion happened so fast. It all happened while I’m here sitting next to my dad and Ellen. My dad is still talking. Still talking about how the Rosens are hiding, but we don’t know where or even why. That just makes it worse especially since Ellen is starting to tear up.

         I feel really bad for Ellen. Not only because people are looking for her, but also because she may not see her parents for a long time. Thank you diary for letting me tell you many things. Until next time.

Favorite Present Poem

Tearing open the paper

Digging into the box

I smile and laugh

As I pull it out

The best thing I could wish for

Without a doubt

I slip them on

My family giggles

Once they see

My favorite present of all
