I meant to send you a Valentine, but I am woefully behind hand in everything these days. What with old friends being very ill5, and new babies arriving, I am actually out of breath. Perhaps if I send you an Easter greeting, now, in March, it won’t get side tracked by unexpected events.
With love and good Wishes Your Aunt WillieYou know that your cousin Margaret6 has a fine baby boy7? I first saw him when he was twenty hours old. He was rosy, but neither red nor wrinkled.
