291 (289 and 290 skipped) June 6 - 5:30 P.M. Wednesday (“Special's Here!”) My Dearest Darling: This afternoon I mailed you the first of Wendy's pictures. They are not proofs, and will not fade. Will you please send back the one of Wendy with the spectacles for her baby book? Besides those in the letter, there is one more picture to be mailed tomorrow. Little sweetie grows so from day to day. This afternoon she learned to say “m-hm” with both the negative and positive intonation. When I asked her to turn on the light she did, and when I asked her to hold out her hand for a kiss - out came a grubby little paw. I'm so anxious to get your [pg 2] next letter - am still hoping hard for tonight. Had a long letter from Grandfather this morning, saying that they've had no word from Bill in over a month - that may mean that he is on his way back - or else terribly busy. Grandfather also said that he thought as Wendy grows older she resembles you more closely - She certainly has your eyes - mine never got bloodshot, but hers do quite frequently - doesn't seem to bother her any. 8:30 Well, I guess its no mail again tonight - damn it all - seems as if I've been waiting an awful long time for that letter- Almost bought a nightie this afternoon - sheer, very sheer white, embroidered and lace shoulder straps, but have decided to wait til September - to give me something to [pg 3] look forward to. More rumors of peace feelers - I wonder how much longer it will be til they begin to amount to something. Well, sweety - guess I'll read for awhile, and then walk to the P.O. I love you very much- Bobby
