Description
104 Friday 9:30 Darling: Just a few minutes ago there were heavy footsteps outside, followed by a loud knocking on our front door and there was the special man with your letter mailed on the 19th. Just four days ago! My mail must be very slow getting to you - seems so long ago I told you about not going to Berkely - the Fort Ord deal, Paula leaving, the Bensons coming - Helen's visit etc. etc. There won't be any letdown after Christmas darling - and I'll have Helen's visit to look forward to. The day after I'll be having my permanent - Agnes [Maitinican?] is having me to lunch - Wendy's pictures -and I'll have a thorough housecleaning to do. But if I should slip - there will be your letter to keep me going - wouldn't it be wonderful if you anticipated my moods, and could have letters here to help me! I've loved all your Christmas cards - and I've not yet received the one you were saving til last. I understand what you mean about Civil Affairs and lack of clarifying basic policies - that's not only true of Civil Affairs, but just about everything pertaining to the aftermath of actual warfare. It makes me feel safe to know that you are gaining from the experience. We will live our life fully and we’re both living it more fully now than we were 3 months ago. And darling, our daddy is more precious to us than anything else in the world. To our future darling - a toast in love from me to you tonight and always Bobby
