DEAR DADDY THE EASTER BUNNY BROUGHT ME A BLUE BUNNY WITH PINK EARS PLEASE COME HOME SOON WE MISS YOU VERY MUCH LOVE AND XXXXXXX WENDY 214 April 2 - Monday - 8:30 P.M. My Darling: Had a glass of sherry before dinner tonight and its made me sleepy and a bit unsteady in the tummy - Maybe it's the sherry - maybe its me- Wendy has had quite a day - she didn't get to sleep til after eleven last night, and woke up early this morning. I think her vaccination is bothering her - its very nasty looking, but quite minor as compared to the reactions of lots of other babies. She hasn't been hungry all day - and to top it all while she was having supper this evening, Mike walked over and for no reason bit her finger hard. Poor little sweetie, for a minute she looked surprized and then started to cry - I could have cried right along with her. Dana drove us over to Ord and Monterey this afternoon - I'm [pg 2] glad to get away from Carmel once a week or so, but it certainly is a drain. It isn't worth writing and fussing about, but I'll tell you about it sometime after you get home. Wendy got another package from M and F today - a yellow terry cloth beach robe - hankies - socks and a precious little apron that M embroidered for her. I got a carton of cigarettes last week and sent half to F and half to Muz. Next time I'll send her a whole carton to divide with Jean. Is the climate spoiling me? No, its pleasant here in California, but not a bit exciting. I do miss the change of seasons very much. The nicest part is the variety and plentitude of flowers. I don't think I’d ever want to have us make our home here permanently, but it would be nice if we could have a month or so here in Carmel after the war. I think the happiness of knowing that we weren't going to be separated again would erase [pg 3] all the unpleasantness of Wendy and me being here alone for so long. Have you heard anything about whether or not MG men are going to be stuck in the field after the war? I certainly hope not, but I guess there is little for us to say about it. Had a funny dream last night - dreamt we had another baby girl weighing 4 lbs. 23 oz. I couldn't figure out the ounces business, but there is was, and that afterwards I got up and went shopping at the dime store! Wish I could send you one of the iris - they are so lovely - but too bulky for mailing. Gerry stopped by this morning and said that she had tried to mail a rose to Rheinie, but the P.O. wouldn't let it go thru. Saw Bev for a minute too, to ask if there was anything she wanted at Ord - She's in dutch with the police dept now for a too noisy party during which one of the fellows swiped and killed a chicken [pg 4] belonging to the family next door! That gal sure gets into a variety of scrapes. She said that Bud's mail has been going out past Hawaii, and then has to be sent back. Things must really be beginning to [?] out there. A not to M and F, both, and then its bed for me. Love you darling - Bobby
