Dear Diary,

Today Joseph left to bring Amelia home to Genovia for good. I'm having very mixed emotions about today, well this week actually, see I'm sad because Joseph left and although we spent the night together in each other's arms, it will be an entire week before I get to see him again. I will miss him both personally and professionally, I never feel as safe when he isn't here to guard me. Also because Parliament thinks it's more important for me to be here than at my only granddaughters college graduation. However, I'm also happy, one because Amelia will graduate on Thursday and will be back in Genovia Friday to start the transition of taking over the country. It will be hard to turn the reins over to her but I know deep in my heart that she will make an excellent Queen. The second reason is a bit more selfish, by her taking over the crown, that puts Joseph and I one step closer to FINALLY being free. I can't wait until her coronation so I can tell the world of our love.

Dear Diary,

Today is Thursday the day of Mia's graduation. Joseph called and told me this afternoon that he had emailed a picture to Charlotte of her walking across the stage to receive her diploma. He is always thinking of me no matter how far away he is. The picture he sent I will treasure forever, I regret not standing up to Parliament so I could be there in person but with all the new changes and still trying to sell Mia to them I thought it best not to rock the boat.

I'm sure little sleep will come tonight…I'm too excited about seeing Mia and Joseph again. They really are the only family I have beside Pierre of course and I can't wait to have 'my' family back together again and for good this time.

Joseph called a short time ago to let me know that they were fixing to take off and should be here just after dinner. It is such a long trip from California and I know they will both be exhausted from the flight but it will all be worth it when they arrive.

I have had Charlotte working closely with Rupert's cousin to insure Mia's suite is finished by tomorrow evening barring no complications and well I intend on taking good care of Joseph and show him exactly how much I missed him.

Dear Diary,

I can't believe this! Amelia is supposed to be here within the hour and what happens? Rupert's cousin floods her suite or at least the bathroom, so I guess my plans for this even have changed. Instead of cuddling up with Joseph after I showed him how much I missed him, I will now be sharing my suite with Mia. Please don't misunderstand, I love Mia and she is more than welcome to stay in here but I was really looking forward to some quality time with Joseph. Perhaps after she retires for the night I can slip through the passageway to his room at least for a couple hours. This is why you never hire family!
