I guess you received my letter yesterday. I bet you were disappointed too. I'm sorry darling please forgive me, I miss you terribly; I'll bet you don't miss me. Your picture helps me a whole lot. They all like your picture very much. They think it looks just like you only you're a little thinner in the face. Grandma is so proud of my picture. The girls like it too. Frances said she must will it to her.
Janie is surprised that she is as

Yesterday it was real nice here, It wasn't cold at all. They didn't have any snow as yet. It was nice this morning, but its blowing real cold now I guess it might snow.

I have a job minding Roger Lee to-day so they can wash. I spend most of my time up stairs with G. Roger Lee is playing on the bed while I'm writing this.

Boy darling are the eats good. Janie is going to send some biscuits

and cornbread back for you.

Why didn't you write Wed. so I'd hear from you to-day. Maybe it take longer than a day. I guess it does. I don't know, but maybe I might be home till the end of the week. We hate to stay on Janie so long because they don't have any money.

Mom is worried about everything. Darling its 1:48 and the mail man must have this before two. So long my darling Popsie. Keep my love, Tell Gratton and Georgene we asked about them

Eternally yours
Snootie.
