Dear mommy,
I found your journal on the floor and thought I'd write you something for when you get back home. (I promise I won't read anything, I know how much you like your privacy.) You're the best mommy in the world and I love you. I never really get to tell you this much, but I still am really happy that you got Ms. Twilight to give me these magic lessons. Today I learned how to write with my magic! It's real useful. Ms. Twilight says I need to work on my literature, which I guess is true, since I still am just in grade school. One more thing I really wanted to ask you since I know you and Rainbow Dash will be off work all next week is if we could all go somewhere fun. Somewhere we could all three be alone and have bunches of fun together! I know a place we could go that Twist says doesn't cost too much. It's like a family fun kind of camp that has different activities every day and it's open every Monday to Friday, and I thought it would be perfect for me you and Rainbow Dash! I was gonna ask you yesterday, but I was too shy, which is why I just wrote it here instead. Anyways, I have to go with Lyra to the store and she says when we get back, you'll be home, so I'll talk to you then, mommy! I love you!
Your loving daughter,
Dinky Doo

My muffin is just so sweet. She's growing up so fast. Are all kids like that? I wish Dinky could just stay young forever. So sweet and innocent. Just like me when I was just a little foal.
I talked to Dinky when she got back from the store with Lyra, and this family fun camp she tells me about sounds like a great idea. Even Rainbow Dash agrees that it would be a fun thing to do. Well, at first, she didn't think it would be best for herself to go, which I thought was ridiculous. I told her she was just as much family to me as Dinky was, who was by my side giving Rainbow her best puppy-dog eyes.
I think that in the end, Dinky was the one that convinced Rainbow to come along with us. She told me to please leave the room so that they could talk privately. I was a bit confused, but I obeyed and they were in that room talking for another few minutes. I'm not sure what was said, but when they both came out Dinky had the cutest look of triumph on her face.
Now I just can't wait until next week. Tomorrow I have to check the place out and reserve a place for us for next week. Spending a whole five days together with Rainbow and Dinky will be great, regardless of what we do.
Your dear friend,

So the place Dinky told me about is called The Ponyville Family Center. Every Monday through Friday, they have this camp where families will go to do fun activities and the like, just as my muffin told me. Thankfully, it doesn't cost much. A membership at the family center costs 13 bits for two parents and a foal. Granted, Rainbow Dash is only posing as a parent for the week. Because, you know. It's a family camp, and Rainbow Dash couldn't go with us if she wasn't family.
Oh, Rainbow just got home from work. She worked a bit later than I did today. I'll have to go and discuss this with her. Talk to you in a little bit, Amico.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Well, Rainbow kind of agrees with the idea. She says to give her another day to think about it. I know she must want to go with us, otherwise she would've already said no.
The reason she says it would be weird is because almost everyone in Ponyville knows her, and they all know she doesn't have a partner of any sorts, and certainly not a daughter. So going to a family camp with her 'wife' and 'daughter' would be a little... odd. Rainbow Dash argued that she could pose as maybe a sister or aunt or other family member, but that just wouldn't work.
And don't get me wrong, I completely agree with her argument, but... I don't know. Her going to this camp would be so much to me and Dinky. And after the week was over, she wouldn't have to pose anymore. Nothing would change...
Guess we'll just have to wait until tomorrow to see if Rainbow will go along with it.
Oh, goodness me! It's past 5:30! ( In case you didn't know, that's muffin time. ) Time to get baking.
Your dear friend,

Hey, Amico. Thought I would write to you again before going to bed, just to pass the time. Dinky is passed out on the couch, and Rainbow Dash just went into her room, so I'm assuming she's going to sleep as well.
It feels nice tonight. I think I'll go sit on the porch and watch the lights of Ponyville go out. I'll write back to you in a minute once I've gotten out there and made myself comfortable.
The breeze is nice. Better than the hot weather we've been getting recently. Living in a house secluded from town is nice. You can see every single star clear as day.
Six hundred and twenty-four. That's how many I can count in tonight's sky. I think it's time to get to sleep. I'm going to take Dinky to her bed, then crawl into my own. I think I'll leave my window open tonight..
Your dear friend,
Ditzy 'Derpy' Doo
