  We have not heard from other then Crellin + Mamma for months. Linda wants her perfume and books. Daddy wants his paper. Thank you for the wedding picture. Next year we can gather together again; we must however, vary the host family if this becomes regular.

  There is much to be done before next Christmas. I hope we shall have time for a holiday in the summer.

  We are at Julie's parents. It's quite pleasant though a little cold. I am reading a little; very pleasant for a change.

  Thomas, the love, is a greater + greater joy. Love + kisses + hugs to you all.
