Wednesday 30 May 1945




Dearest Kitten:
You are perhaps feeling like a very neglected wife right now, but believe me it is not because you are not always with me in my thoughts. I love you and miss you so much that I can not express my feelings. Wherever I go or am, there will always be a part of you with me. I have you in my heart at all times, so even though I am miles away from you, you are always there with me.
With the passing of each day my longing and yearning for you continues without diminishing in any way. Yes, I am a very tired & lonesome man right now, who wishes to hell he were home.
I am rapidly running out of patience. All I seem to be doing is waiting for the day when I will be permitted to take you into my arms and tell you that our period of separation is over. When that day finally does arrive, we will be as happy as a couple of kids.
Now to answer your letters #274-5-6-7&8.
All my little surprises for you have been unsuccessful lately. At least I tried and I know that you were just as thrilled as if they had really worked.
Yes, I am still planning on having a couple youngsters. Of course only time will tell, but if I have my way we will have a couple more.
Bobby and Mother certainly get around. I bet Bobby enjoyed the long ride to Ogunquit. I can imagine all the questions that he could ask on a ride like that.
It is odd to read some news about some of my old acquaintances. I hope that we may get the opportunity to go to Ogunquit for a week or so when I return.
You seem to be bumping into Ray & Ce quite often.
So you stopped the children from going to the store. That must hurt them a great deal. A youngsters feel quite big and grown up when they have a penny to buy some candy with it.
Our children must be getting quite big and I miss them very much. I took care of them so much that I miss getting them ready to go out or ready for bed. When I get home, I will have to start all over to get to know them the way that I want to.
You certainly are getting ambitious with your sewing. Pauline is lucky to have a sister that is willing to do some sewing for her. But I bet that she hardly ever wears the coat after you finish it.
But I bet that she hardly ever wears the coat after you finish it.
So Charlie finally made it. Wish him luck for me and that I hope he gets an easy going 1st/Sgt.
If Norman received the Silver Star, he had to be in action. The Silver Star is given for Gallantry in action. He must have done something out of the ordinary.
I am afraid that your prayers are not to be answered.
It was nice of Arthur to write to you and I was happy to know that he asked about me. I always liked Arthur and hope that we may be able to go out together after this is all over.
So the youngsters are getting fresh are they? Too bad I am not there to handle the worse things that they do. I only hope that I may have the ability that my Dad had in handling children.
Lorraine & Ray have had a lot of bad breaks since they got married. I bet they will make up for it though when he gets home.
Food so far has been very good with our outfit. Of course there is always a possibility of a change. We have been very fortunate so far but with all the people of Europe to feed now it may make a difference.
So Mother is going to Ogunquit for the summer? Ogunquit is in her blood you know. She can not keep away from the place. Oh well if it will keep her busy and happy, I guess that it is best for her to do as she likes. She has had to do so many things that she did not want to and pass up so many things that I do not blame her for doing the things that she wants.
I received a letter from Leo today post-marked 8th of April. He sent it regular mail. I also received a letter from Mother and one from Estelle.
In Estelle’s letter she claimed that Andrew was getting his discharge within a week. He is probably a discharged veteran by this time. Estelle is planning to continue work for a while until Andrew has settled in a job that he wants.
Gosh but I love you Sweetheart. It seems like ages since I have taken you in my arms to tell you just how much that I love do you. Just be patient and the day will arrive when I will be back home with my family and everything will be so right.
Well Beautiful I must and say good night to you. Pleasant dreams Sweetheart. I love you.
Regards to everyone and kiss the babies for me.
Your Loving Devoted & Faithful Husband,

Bob
