That is awesome Nancy Jo. What a blessing that you still have it.
After my Aunt passed away my cousin found my grandmother's journals and she typed them out and sent everyone a copy. It is so fantastic to be able to red her daily writings.

O, a trouble's a ton or a trouble's an ounce,
Or a trouble is what you make it!
And it isn't the fact that you're hurt that counts,
But only--how did you take it?
