None of the other girls have got a divorce in their families, and I always did like to be different.
Besides, it ought to be awfully interesting, more so than just living along, common, with your father and mother in the same house all the time--especially if it's been anything like my house with my father and mother in it! That's why I've decided to make a book of it--that is, it really will be a book, only I shall have to call it a diary, on account of Father, you know.

Won't it be funny when I don't have to do things on account of Father?
And I won't, of course, the six months I'm living with Mother in Boston.

But, oh, my!--the six months I'm living here with him--whew! But, then, I can stand it.

I may even like it--some.
Anyhow, it'll be _different_.

And that's something.
Well, about making this into a book.
