209 March 29 Thursday - 9:30 P.M. My dearly beloved: Have just put Wendy back in her crib, and now she's talking herself to sleep. This has been another beautiful day- the kind that makes you happy whether you think you want to be or not. Wendy and I walked all around town in the sunshine, and stopped at the yarn shop to get wool for your socks and sweater. I was so disappointed to learn that wool has been frozen - there wasn't anything suitable - but I'll keep looking and hope to find some good yarn before too long. When we got home we decided to go out back and work in the garden. Wendy romped in the grass and enjoyed herself thoroughly - Mummie worked hard dressed in your green plaid shirt and denim pants. This afternoon we stopped by to see Gerry and she told me that Rheinie was going to visit you last Saturday. She's been entertaining a 16 year old cousin, and that has been [pg 2] keeping her busy. We stayed til about 3:30 and then went on downtown - Left my green sweater to have the button holes made - should be ready in about two weeks. The box should be finished tomorrow - it will be such fun to fill it with pretty things to wear for you. Saw a lovely yellow nightie trimmed with black lace at the Silver Thimble, but decided it was too exotic, to say nothing of being too expensive. Do you have any special kind of nightie that you would like me to get? Have the ivory colored alarm clock out to send you - there is no one who can fix it, but perhaps you will find someone out there who can do the job. No mail today, but I enjoyed rereading some of your letters this evening. While I read them I feel as if I am listening to you talk - it's a good and very satisfying feeling. Little sweetie is still awake - guess I’d better turn of the lights and radio and go to bed - come to me in my dreams darling - And love me as I love you- Bobby
