Dear Diary,
It's been a long time since I've been able to write. Our family is so busy adjusting to life here in the New World. Papa and I built out house up with the help of some of the other villagers. I also helped build a lot of other houses since then. Everyone in the village helps everyone. Papa says it's because we all need to depend on each other to survive. I don't like when he says that. It scares me to think we may not.
The buzz around the village lately has been all about the Indians. They haven't come into the village yet but people have sworn they've seen them watching us from the trees. I haven't seen any yet, unfortunately. Matthew says he has, but I don't believe him. He couldn't even tell me what they looked like.
I'm worried about Mama. She doesn't seem to like our new home very much. I think she misses Aunt Margaret. She is always writing letters to her back in London. Maybe she can come to the New World too?
More later.
- John
