We have a sweet, little house that Papa and I built....It is different from England. But it feels almost like a real home now.
Tonight, at twilight, Papa laid a fire on our hearth. Mama was nursing baby Abigail. We talked about Caleb. Just think, Papa said, come spring, Caleb will be here.
That makes me happy. For it will be a real home when Caleb comes.
In Elizabeth Barker's second diary, the Jamestown colony continues to suffer. There is little food, and disease has gripped the settlers, shrinking their numbers each day. Lizzie remains brave, clinging to the hope that soon her brother Caleb will arrive.
