Sometimes it bothers me that people now only recognize me because of tragedy. But I've come to understand that people really care and worry for me. I feel I should say to every person I meet, 'I'm fine. Daria's fine. Life goes on.'

So I step into the future, as bravely as I'm able, with my heart longing for a time I'll never see again.

The other day when we were reading The Little Mermaid again, at the part where it says that only human souls can go up to heaven and mermaids can't, you (Daria) said, 'See that's like Papa. He lives in heaven. With the angels'

I like to cook good meals, especially when I have a lot of time.

I'm almost a full-time mom.

She (Daria) has Sergei's wide and ready smile, so beautiful to me.
