Dear Buttons,

        My name is Arabelle Tybalt. Today I am 13 years old.

As my birthday gift, mama said, "Every girl should have a place to write her thoughts and secrets down."

So she made you. She made me you, herself and sowed on these beautiful buttons from my old church dresses and glued on my old brown hair ribbons too.

It's the best gift I have ever gotten. I'm going to call you buttons.

Anyway I have a cat named Silvester.

He lives with us in our house, In Messina, Sicily.

My family owns a lot of land. I live with my mother, Isabel and my papa, Charlie.

I have long brown hair and pale skin like Mother does, and I have papa's blue eyes.

My favorite color is light blue and I am inlove with a peasant's child, named Roger.

Ofcourse, I wouldn't dear tell mama or papa that.
