Dear Diary, Today, I found out I was pregnant, which would explain why I was feeling so sick in the mornings. I also have been craving weird foods like cupcakes dipped in applesauce or caramel coated pickles. Pinkie and Sweet Heart were so happy to find out, I actually just came back from a party that Pinkie and my friends threw for me. Those ponies are so awesome to me. Recently I also went to War Heart’s old home in Caneighda, which was WAY too cold! No wonder Nopony lives up there. His mother and sister are nice Pegasi, but his dad kind of weirded me out, made me so nervous. Sweet Heart came with us back to Ponyville and is working with Pinkie and the Cakes at Sugar Cube Corner. Oh, and I got a very special necklace from War Heart’s mom. It’s as if she saw me as her daughter. I never felt like that before, I never knew my parents so… It feels good to have somepony like that, even if it is a little late. War Heart tries so hard to look after me, he seems just as loyal as me. He went out and got me whatever I was craving, and helped me when I wasn’t feeling too good. He’s a good stallion, I love him so much.
Dear Diary, it’s been a few months and my belly is all swollen up. It isn’t too much trouble so far but I’m pretty psyched to be a mom. I wonder what we’ll name them, me and War Heart have been talking about it but we haven’t decided yet. The only thing we did decide is that the name will end up with Heart in them, his family name. I wonder what kind of a dad War Heart will be?
Dear Diary, my back is killing me, it feels like a bag of bricks in my belly. I can feel the baby kick sometimes. We still don’t know if it’ll be a colt or a filly, we don’t want to know until it happens. Today I had one of Pinkie’s Cherrichangas with some mustard, I know it’s weird but it tasted good… somehow.
Dear Diary… I was not expecting this at all… I gave birth to a beautiful filly. Sadly we won’t be able to teach her how to fly… She’s a unicorn. War Heart had quite a day. He slipped on the floor where my water broke, he was kinda disturbed at first but then rushed me to the hospital. When we got there it was so painful going through labour. War Heart fainted when the baby was coming out. He must really be heavy, he shook the room when he hit the floor. So yeah, our baby is a unicorn filly, her coat was just like mine, her mane was purple like War Heart’s mom’s mane. She also had my eyes, I was so happy when she looked at me. I’ve never felt so excited, I think I want another one. I’ll have to talk to War Heart about that first though.
Dear Diary, it’s been a few months, I’m SO exhausted, taking care of a unicorn is kind of hard when they use magic. I can’t count the amount of times she just disappeared and reappeared in random places. Pinkie and Sweet Heart visit almost all the time when they aren’t working, so they can play with the baby. At least Pinkie had a little experience with baby unicorns from babysitting for the cakes. Gah, I’m so exhausted, I need more sleep.
Dear Diary, Arcana has been walking into things a lot. Me and War Heart have been wondering about it and we went to see the doc. He said that she had a stig-ma-something. He says she’ll need glasses in order to see properly. So now she wears her specs with purple rims that she picked out. She speaks pretty good for not even being a year old, she has a knack for words. I guess my daughter may be an egg-head, but I still love her. She’s getting that same spiked mane-style as War Heart, I actually thought that was how he styled his mane, but apparently it was natural. War Heart’s parents also came for a visit, it turns out War Heart’s grandmother on his mom’s side was a unicorn, she told us since we didn’t know why we had a unicorn. Maybe that means that my parents had Unicorn blood in them too. War Heart and I have been looking into getting Arcana into a school for magic since she is started to have some… issues… her accidents are getting a bit hectic from having everything in the kitchen float around to setting her toys on fire by accident. I talked to Twilight about it and she said that she would have to be sent to the Magic School for Gifted Unicorns in Canterlot. I really don’t want to send Arcana away for so long…
Dear Diary, Today was Arcana’s first birthday, Pinkie threw her a huge party, with Sweet Heart’s help. AJ introduced her to Apple Bloom, who introduced her to Rarity’s sister and that orange coated filly Pegasus, I can’t remember her name. They seemed to get along pretty well, I let them go play while I hung out with my friends. War Heart has been heading off into the woods pretty often lately. He tells me that he goes and takes walks in the woods like he did back home. I think he sometimes feels homesick but he doesn’t let out feelings often, but when he does, it usually is something pretty extreme. I also notice he’s very fond of our daughter, it’s good that he wants to be a good dad. Maybe he wants to be better to her than his dad was to him? Twilight also came to me today, she told me that Celestia had approved her for teaching magic and that she would take Arcana as her apprentice. At least I know I can trust Twilight with my daughter and let her teach Arcana not to blow up the house or something.
Dear Diary, Arcana is apparently pretty smart, but not book smart, Twilight says that she doesn’t understand the books she is given, but when Twilight shows her how a spell works, she knows how to do it, but not as impressive as the original. Twilight says it is only a matter of practice before she’ll be able to do spells easily. Something else that happened today was that War Heart asked me if we could have another kid, I was thinking of asking him the same thing but wasn’t sure if he wanted to. We seem to have plenty of time when Arcana heads to Twilight’s for her studies, maybe I should surprise him.
Dear Diary, War Heart has been adding more and more rooms to the house to give Arcana her own room across the shield hall from our room. As well as another room for the next baby. Arcana sometimes brings the ‘Crusaders’ to our home to play and try and find their cutie marks. They tried helping War Heart make the new room by carving some cool drawings in the door frame. Apple Bloom’s carvings looked awesome, better than War Heart’s but I don’t think I should tell him that. I think tomorrow will be a good time to surprise War Heart.
Dear Diary, I’m getting sick in the mornings again, it’s been a few months so I’m pretty sure I’m pregnant again, Arcana is a little worried, she thinks I’m getting sick with flu or something. War Heart tells her that I only got an upset stomach, I don’t think she’s old enough yet to know about that stuff. I’ll probably tell my friends that I’m pregnant again soon.
Dear Diary, sorry I lost you, I sorta dropped you and you ended up under the bed and you were just sorta gone. It’s been about two years since the last entry, I’m happy to say that in that time, War Heart and I had two more kids. First, we had Arcana, a filly unicorn with my coat and eyes, War Heart’s mane style, with the dark purple colour that War Heart’s mom has. Our second born was a Pegasus filly, Air Heart, her coat looks like War Heart’s mom’s coat, she has War Heart’s eyes and my Mane-style (so awesome), and her mane is a mix of pink and purple streaks. Our last one is a colt. An Earth pony colt, War Heart said that the kid has Wild Heart’s eyes. The kid definitely has War Heart’s coat although it is a little brighter. He also has a totally black mane, he is also a bit bigger than his sisters. He doesn’t talk yet but then again, he isn’t very old, maybe he just isn’t ready to talk yet. Air Heart has potential as a flyer, she reminds me of me when I was her age. She isn’t afraid of anything. Which reminds me of the one time War Heart saw a spider crawl across the table while he was eating and he flipped the table and dashed out of the room. Then Air Heart just walked over to it and squished it, she wasn’t very impressed by War Heart’s reaction to that bug. Arcana has been taking her studies seriously, I almost never see her without a book floating in front of her face. She apparently is now able to learn spells from books but still learns easier from watching Twilight do it. Now that I think of it, the whole book thing may explain why she keeps bumping into things lately. Black Heart, he just sort of keeps to himself, never calling to me or War Heart for anything. I saw him outside one day and he just sat there looking down at something, he was facing away from me so I didn’t know what he was looking at. I went over to him and noticed his front leg was bleeding, I took him inside and got him bandaged up. When I asked him what happened he said he fell down and scraped his leg. He was totally calm about it like it didn’t hurt or something. I asked him why he didn’t call for help and he just told me he didn’t want to bother me or War Heart. I guess it’s sweet that he doesn’t want to be an issue but I don’t know he seems kind of… not all there when anypony talks to him. It’s almost like he isn’t paying attention when anypony speaks to him, like he has his mind on something else.
Dear Diary, Twilight told me that the Gala was coming up again this year, she told me that Celestia was interested in meeting Arcana, and that she is inviting War Heart, the kids and me to the Gala. I guess I should bring Arcana, Air, and Black to Rarity and get them some clothes. Air and Black are both in school, in the same class since Air didn’t do so well last year and had to redo the class. She told me that Black just sits at his desk and doesn’t talk to anypony. I’m starting to wonder about that colt, I barely hear him talk and only when I start talking to him. Air Heart has a few friends from flight school that she hangs out with, I have to bring her to and from flight school since War Heart can’t walk on clouds. War Heart seems to be the stay at home parent, taking care of cooking and whatever while I go flying or hanging out with Pinkie. He seems kind of different since I first met him. He seems a lot calmer. There were points where I felt that Air Heart was going to drive me up the wall that War didn’t even bat an eye. I don’t think I’ve ever seen him get angry… ever.
Dear Diary, tomorrow is the Grand Galloping Gala, the kids all have their clothes and are psyched to meet the princess, well the girls do, Black seems like he doesn’t care. War Heart doesn’t seem nervous at all, Twilight told me that he actually panicked the first time he was there that he had to get outside. I also saw War Heart and Black Heart talking outside, looking at the sky. It was the first time I ever saw Black actually seem interested in anything. When I asked War Heart what they were talking about he told me that he was telling Black about his adventures. Maybe I should get Black to read the Daring Do books with me, maybe he’ll have something to talk about with me. Tomorrow morning I have to do some stuff to get ready for the Gala, gotta go to bed now.
