Home for the Holidays

  BEEP!
  "Ekk! An email from Bells!" I squealed. I double clicked on the email. "Ohh! She sent me a picture!" I mumbled excitedly to myself. "Omigosh! This is so funny!" I giggled. I sent a quick reply to Bells and snapped my laptop shut.
    Right now I'm really supposed to be in New York City, but I decided that I really should be home for Christmas. Madame Scarlet told me I could be a teenage fashion designer, but I realized that I'm trying to grow up too fast and I turned down Madame's offer to join her in New York.
      Everything's been so.... depressing since I left West Virginia. At school the word got out that I was visiting my sister in West Virginia for Thanksgiving and everyone started giving me sympathetic smiles in the hallway. Even the TEACHERS! Some people even teased me, but I just ignored them. Here's a little saying I thought of to get me through the day.

            Life
Life is like building a tower
We build ourselves up
 just to be knocked down
over and over again.
But after we're knocked down
we build it up again.

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. Christmas and Christmas Eve (today) won't be the same without you Bella.

Feliz Navidad,
Sofia
