The children don’t understand how it is to be one thing and need to act two different ways. I think of myself as a well-balanced woman and I really love the Finch’s but I can’t always act proper. Lula was a brat today. She yelled at me about bringing white children to my black church. Once she left Reverend Sykes collected money for Tim Johnson’s wife and kids. Nobody will hire the poor lady because her husband was accused of rape. It doesn’t help that she’s colored. Most colored folks don’t know how to read or write. I am glad I have that skill. I love working in the Finch house but it’s hard being a mother to my own kids and the Finch kids.
