Dear Son:
I v/ant to say "helJLo” to all the
'Other boys and girls too. I stariied mak
ing excuses as most, of us will do when Jim
came UxO and’asked me to Write "The Mother
of the Month" letter for I [pt kinda jitt
ery thinking ab'out so many reading this^
but let me tell you something when Jim
walks up with-that determined look on his
face you jiist as well say o,k. when he
first c';sks you, for he isn’t 'leaving until
you say', yes.
V/ell here's hoping; you are a.11 g'etting along-’fine ?jid althou{;^i all of you can’t
come home for Christmas we are all wishing you a Merry Christmas v/herever you are and
may you just thank God that everythi ng is as well as it is.
Everyone is at v»!ork on their Christmas ProTams and f;etting packag'es off to the
boys and girls in Service, Hope no one will be left cut. It seems every one is very
anxious to h-elp you boys and girls in any way they can but we feel like the most we
cfill do is nothing compared vdth what you all are doing for us.
If I Imev; that you all would vnjoy reading what little I’ve.tried to write half
as much as I enjoy the letters you write home to J?*xi, I v/ouldn’t try to get out of
^jriting. The first thing I read when I g-et the Hoover Rc il arc the letters you all
write back and I r.ure enjoy them.
So long and may God bless you. We’re hoping and praying that you all will soon
be back with us.
Lc'ts of Love,
Uothor
