From the perspective of Atticus
September 1st
Summer is finally over. Jem and Scout start school tomorrow. everyday of the Summer they have been coming home with stories of what Dill and they did today. One day they told me that Jem was dared by Dill to touch Boo Radley's house and they saw the curtain move when he did. When I heard that I was scared like no man has been scared before. After that I had Calpurnia take a look at them every now and then.
September 2nd
When I came home and spent some time with Scout she told me how weird it felt when Calpurnia gave her a hug and said that she missed her when she was away at school. I never thought that Calpurnia would miss Scout I thought she would love it if Scout was gone. But it was a weird side of Calpurnia that I have never seen. Maybe there is more to Calpurnia then I thought.

Today when Scout came home she told me she saw the dirtiest boy ever. I told her that because of the economy was so bad that most people can't afford anything. Not even water. She felt bad and said she will raise enough money as possible to help them. I encouraged her and gave her a nickel to start. I immediately felt good about that and felt good for the rest of the day.
