Sunday 22 April 1945



Dearest Kitten:
Have been a busy beaver today. This morning I had to go to the memorial services at the city hall. Enclosed is the program for the services. You might be interested to know what went on. The hall was loaded with Yanks. We got back to camp at noon by convoy.
Lets #254-5 & 6 plus your two anniversary cards. The 27th is rapidly approaching and I am more then ever aware of the promise that I once made you, remember? A war is responsible for the breaking of that promise but I am in hopes of making it up to you at the earliest possible moment.
So you are chastising your husband for his not writing as often as you think that he should by slowing down on your own letters huh? Two wrongs do not make a right you know. Beside, see what happens to you when you get mean with me, your face swells up. I was sorry to read about it Sweetheart honestly. It serves you right for putting off going to the dentist so long.
Won’t it be a relief when we can move where there is a nice bathroom? It will be so much easier for you to give the children their baths etc. I miss taking a bath in the bath tub. When I get home I am going to stretch out and soak for a couple of hours.
Thanks for the pictures. Andrew looks good, the lucky stiff, but the smudge under his nose would look better on someone else.
You are looking good Sweetheart. As for Barbara she has a sour puss in one picture that reminds me of my first wife when I first married her. She used to get a puss like that on her once in awhile. She got over it though. Yes she got so that she was quite civilized toward me, but I had to leave. Don’t think that she will have changed much by the time I return.
Your Mother & Father are not getting any younger and the sooner your sisters realize that, the better off your parents will be. They take your Mother and Father for granted. It is partly your Mother’s fault for babying them so much. Oh well, I better keep my big nose out of things that do not concern me.
Things are certainly happening to the people that I know back home. Was very happy about Fred Gagnon. His folks must be relieved over him, now that they know that he is safe.
It was kind of you to give the bathinette to the young woman from the upstairs apartment. Poor kid, from what you write of her, I would say that she needed a friend. Do what you can for her Sweetheart.
Is Barbara going to take after you? She seems to be falling down all the time like you used to do.
Received a letter from Estelle today and plan to answer her in a couple of days.
By the way, thanks for your cards, they are very nice. Only a woman in love could be so nice and thoughtful. Especially when she knows that her love is returned. I do love you even if you do get mean now and then. It only goes to prove that you love me when you get mad at me for my so-called neglect in my correspondence.
Give my regards to everyone and kiss the babies for me Darling. I love you from the bottom of my heart.
Your Loving Devoted & Faithful Husband,
Bob
