Basically what Carrie is saying, is that her Uncle never gave her the love that she needed. When her mother neglected her at age nine, she felt unloved. Her father was a great man, and he worked hard hours on the farm. He couldn’t bend the rules and spend more time with her. They would soon need a lot more money to survive. The Uncle was at the house a lot, and never once told her that he loved her. At so, she felt “So Small”.
