Dear Diary,

I got an A+ for my "Thistle-puller" invention. It was all my own idea, though Dad and Mum had to do a lot of the construction. We used recycled bits and pieces, and the fork tines were way tough, so that they blunted hacksaws.

I left it a bit late, so Daddy and I had to work late on Sunday night. I resolved not to leave my school projects so late again. That is some promise for someone who is only 9.35 years old. I wonder if I will remember that pledge? Dad might remind me.
