My grandmother's diary -- word for word, spelling for spelling, thought for thought, idea for idea -- just as she originally wrote it back in 1944 and '45. I hope you enjoy this glimpse into the life of an 11-year-old Swiss girl in Berne, Indiana.

Nov. 5, 1944

Went to church. Had a good dinner at home. Went to Uncle Lee’s in the afternoon. Ate supper but didn’t wash the dishes. Then I drank 1 glass of goat’s milk. I got to much in my mouth and almost threw up. Went to church and came home again and went to bed.
