267 Friday-May 18 - 8:45 P.M. My Dearest Darling: The mail really brought me a haul this morning - Helen came in at breakfast time with two letters from you, one from Muz, another from M and F, Time and the Pine Cone. I enjoyed reading all about the fishing trip - gee- I wish I could have really been along - do you suppose you could take 4 or 5 pictures next time you go out or hasn't the film arrived yet? Sweety, I wish you could have one of those long legged dolls made for Wendy, but there just isn't any satin or even solid colored rayon material to be had. There may be some later on, but there's just no [pg 2] telling. Muz, M and F, Aunt B, Helen and Jean had dinner together in Brooklyn Wednesday evening - I've yet to hear the details. Jean stopped over a day or two on her way up to Connecticut. This morning on our way home from town I stopped to rest and talk for a minute with an old carpenter. Asked him if he’d fix Wendy's chair - sure enough he came up this afternoon, sawed the legs even, and wouldn't even let me pay him for his trouble. I'm going to paint the chair white, with little sweetie's name and trim pink with touches of dark green. [pg 3] This afternoon I took Wendy over to pay Mrs. Price a visit. We took her a nosegay of flowers from our garden and when we left she gave me two beautiful Ophelia roses. Wendy wore just her pinafore and panties, and I Was a bit apprehensive of a puddle on the carpet, but nothing happened. Wendy and her toidey are getting to be quite a problem. Today I walked in to find Wendy standing in the water, paddling her feet, and leaning happily on the seat! She doesn't like to have me stay with her all the time, yet when I leave her for a minute or two she usually gets into [pg 4] mischief. Tonight my nose and feet are cold - the days now are quite warm, but the evenings get very chilly. Sweety, I'm looking forward to the promised long answer so I can write you a long letter back. I love you darling - with all that's in me Bobby
