Dear Diary,
Today all of the Jews were ghettoized. We were moved out of our homes and into a fenced in area with all of the other Jewish citizens of Tauber, away from everyone else. This isn’t as bad as it sounds. I am able to see my friends more often during the day because we live closer together. Raphael and I meet with each other almost every day. The only problems I have with the community are that the rules have become a lot stricter. Our curfew is at 8 o’clock. There are certain items we are not allowed to have in our house, and the Nazis are allowed to search our house at any time. My father dislikes being “ghettoized,” but my mother and brother are fine with it. Mother is very worried that Phillip will be sent away to a labor camp because the rules are very strict in this ghetto and Phillip is usually very disobedient. She watches him closely to make sure that he doesn’t provoke any Nazis.
With Love,
Lydia
