Dearest Folks:
Just finished a losing game of bridge and now feeling cozy and comfortable in the chilly night air. I will look forward with a inner relief when Saturday night rolls around although the days are all the same. Katie had written me about my new title of uncle and of course I was really surprised, but at the same time glad to hear it and know that I will have someone new to meet. It hardly seems real that she will be a mother and you a grandmother when I recall our petty squabbles that made so many memories and makes a family happy. All these years seem to have gone by like a flash of light although they would never end at the time. The poorer news was Dick’s new move but perhaps by some chance he will be transferred to the islands. If he should be, I believe we could arrange a meeting. A few days ago I mailed you a bond and about a dozen photographs. I hear Wylma is working in Denver, in fact, I write to her often. I guess it’s goodbye for tonight and I do my share of the praying too.
Love,
