Diary of Mary (part 3)

Well we have now been on this ship for one month! I do hope we are not on this dreaded ship much longer! The captain says it should not be more then a month, which all of us are very grateful for. Today my friends mother gave birth to a baby boy, they named him Oceanus, they said they named him that because he was born out in the middle of this ocean, quite a beautiful name I think. For the past two weeks I have been so tired because they are so many people sick that we have to take care of all the little children who are sick and not sick! But what else could i do not this ship? We are not allowed to go on deck, for you see the captain says all of us children, big and small are a nuisance. So here I am writing writing on a case of food in these stinky quarters of this small ship. You would think with all of us being sick that the food would stink by now, but it has stayed nice a fresh, which all of us are grateful for. Well we all must go and have a prayer time now.

Mary
