I wish something would happen. Waiting to find out what they're going to do next has gotten us nowhere. It could be months before we get an idea of what's going on. Dad's back with them, but that never meant he had to be away from us until now. I want to know what they're making him do that's so important that he has to stay away from his family.

The three of us are all alone. Four if you count Mr. Muggles. I think you have to now, he's a Bennet as much a Bennet as the rest of us. Or a Butler, whatever we're supposed to be now that we're stuck in this in between that I forced us into. I should have listened, but I have to stop focusing on that and start trying to figure out how to make this better.

I've spent days going over what happened; replaying it in my head. There are so many things that I could have done differently, and there's nothing I can do to fix any of it now. The best thing that I can do for my family is to be a good daughter and take care of Lyle and Mom.

I think its harder on her than the rest of us. She was the last one to know about everything that was going on, even Lyle discovered about my ability before she did. And when she found out, instead of hating Dad and being freaked out by me, she still loved us.

I don't know that I could have done the same, I think she's a lot stronger than I am. She didn't just forgive us, she held us together. She does that everyday.

I'm going to try to start helping her with that if she'll let me. The four of us being all alone together doesn't feel right. If we're all together, we're not alone. There's still a chance we could fix this someday.

I'm not giving up until we do.
