Thursday Evening [6/22/44] My darling:- Here I sit waiting for your phone call - hurry up dear, have lots to tell you. Wendy has been particularly precious today - she weighs 7 lb. 3 oz. now - our daughter is growing. Her formula is increased, and she gets orange juice on Saturday. You just phoned - wish we [pg 2] could have talked for hours. Sunday is on it's way. Just a week now, and I can hardly wait. Darling, I want you more than ever before, but in a way I haven't ever quite felt before. Wendy got two presinks today - the bath apron I told you about, and a lovely embroidered flannel [sacque?] from Tony Ruhl. Too bad Wendy isn't old enough to have the fun of unwrapping packages, her mother is sure having a good time! Well, Wendy will unwrap gifts for her son or daughter someday. Am trying to decide whether or [pg 3] not to keep Miss Fuuke til you get home - probably will let her go on Tuesday. Have to take full charge of Wendy sometime. I wish you could have been here between 6:15 and 6:30 - Wendy was all fed, clean and tucked in the bassinet when I heard two little crys. Went in to see what was wrong and this is what I found! Wendy engaged in the important business of the day - the exertion of which gave her a very red face and forced up part of her supper all over the blanket, and her clean nightie [pg 4] and shirt. I put her on the bassinette to change and wash her-presto! A flood, followed by a burp and long siege of hiccoughs. Finally got her cleaned up, and returned to her bassinette where she went sound asleep both arms flung over her head - Well, I had a good laugh, and congratulated us on having such a versatile daughter. A shower now, and then to bed after sweetie's feeding- I love you too, darling- Bobby
