"No kids allowed"

Dear Diary,

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Well, I wish it was.

It's been a busy week! I found out what all of Mommy's phone-calls were about, and why Mommy has been so busy lately, leaving me with Aunt Kelly.

I guess this is the point where I explain that. The "School" metaphor has worked up to this point in explaining Anwenn's absences from the larger story when *I* am busy working.. but that hasn't always worked out well, especially over the holidays, with 'Mommy" taking off for a vacation here and there... so we've invented Aunt Kelly, a neighbor/friend of Mommy's, who hasn't had kids but wants them, who babysits Anwenn when Rae is off gallivanting.

Mommy has been planning a huge surprise for our family. I think she wanted it to be ready for Christmas, but there were problems.

Mommy and Cory got a vacation house.. and it's like the total opposite of Somersley. While it's cold and snowing here, it's sunny and warm at the beach there! It looked really nice, and I got to see a bit of the place from pictures that Mommy sent to Kelly's phone, but there's a problem.

And its a big problem, and it's got everyone very upset. And it's my fault.

Mommy found out, after getting the place, that kids aren't allowed. Babies, yes, but not big kids like me.

No one's mad *AT* me.. but they're all mad or sad, or both, and there's a lot of yelling and slamming doors.

I'm sad. But I'm not sad cuz of the vacation house not happening, and I'm not sad cuz I'm not allowed there.

I'm sad because it's my fault that Mommy is frustrated and sad. She says it's not my fault, but it feels like it is. I want her to be happy because of me, not sad.
