Feb. 25, 1948<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wed. evening 10:10 to be exact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hi cutie,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[Drawn arrow pointing to the word cutie.] That word doesn\u2019t look right does it. Since I wrote that last line I have been doodling. That piece of paper<\/a> is the result. Perfect picture of my mind.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know something? I love you an awful lot for a little boy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As far as I know I\u2019ll be home Friday nite. If I am I\u2019ll go to the game and pick you up. Wolf, huh?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can\u2019t think of anything to write. I must be getting stale in the mind with nothing to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh yes, a funny thing happened to me Monday nite. I had a dream about you and me. I think it was just about like yours only you were just as aggresive (?) as I was. Very interesting even if somewhat disturbing. Pardon me while I get some ink. I think I\u2019m running out. Bye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back again the same day. Still love me? I thought so. That can be taken two ways so don\u2019t call me conceited. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My mother says we must be crazy going to Rangley<\/a> on such icy roads. It wasn\u2019t very icy, that\u2019s what I told her anyway. I guess maybe I should have gone a little slower though, oh well, nothing happened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that it\u2019s 11:15 now, over an hour and I still love you, oops that\u2019s not what I mean to say but come to think of it I guess I do at that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So your mother thinks that we\u2019ve gotten worse now, huh. How did she know? It must be the way you ta1lk in your sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really can\u2019t think of any more to write so I guess I\u2019ll have to close. I\u2019ll see you Friday. You know, a thought just came to me. Life has changed a little. I used to come home home to spend the time between weeks of studying but now I just study as something to do between weekends. Thats getting a little balled up but maybe you\u2019ll get the idea. Anyway, I love you sweetheart, more and more as time goes on, too. I wonder if it will ever stop?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
