Dearest Darling,
Mom and I have just returned from town where everyone looked me over. I bought Pauline two pottery plates for our wedding gift to her, and also purchased 2 ½ more yds. of lace for my slip. Decided not to have my hair fixed over here for fear the permanent wouldn’t be a good one and would have to take it over. I might not get back soon. Mom practically guided me along the streets for fear I might stumble, and of course, she worries most of the time for fear something will happen to me. It is really a joke.
Though I’m enjoying the rest and the little visit, I do miss you so much - you sweet thing.
