240 Navy #3247 (Mil. Govt) F.P.O. San Francisco Saturday 2 June 9 pm My dearest darlings! I've been busy tonight, but not too busy to take a moment now to thank you for the lovely surprise you gave me late this afternoon. It was a surprise, completely, and this time it came right on the eve of the day for which it was intended, the better to prepare me for a long and joyous celebration of that happy occasion, my adorable Little Sweetie's First Birthday. Wendy darling, I hope that tomorrow will find you singing (in your own very special manner) and just bubbling over with glee at being alive; I hope too that it finds Mummy more eager than ever to romp with you, and to have a little talk with you and her and [pg 2] Daddy's picture - just the three of us; it will certainly find you in Daddy's heart, where you've been ever since before Mummy and I began you (though we knew we were going to!) - more especially after that moment when we discovered with hushed excitement that you really were begun - most especially of all that year-ago-tomorrow when Mummy stirred sleepily and said “Is it perfect…?” and I answered, “Of course it's perfect - she's perfect - it's Wendy!” And pretty soon the nurse brought you in, and there you were. There you are now in Carmel, but you are here too, and will be wherever Daddy goes, for the kind of love he has for you is big and strong and has no barriers. Bobby darling, I shall never forget that day. How could I? Warren
