Hello, my Sweetheart:  I love you.

You made me feel very happy today, Darling, as rec’d two more of your grand letters, dated March 26 and 31.  All-right, Hon, I’ll use V-Mail from now on – though I hardly get started on a letter, and it’s time to quit.

I’m glad you know why you love me.  I’ve always known why I love you. – Because you’re wonderful in so many ways.  You’ve always been so kind and thoughtful – affectionate and loving, too.  Thank you for always being such a gentleman and always saying nice things to me when I really deserved a licking!

Be careful of those swamps!  Did you get the pheasant?  A rabbit dashed out of our garage as I put the car away today.  It sort of startled me.  I saw a pileated woodpecker also today by the creek.  I’m going to miss all this wild life when we move up north.

A friend, who is also a Red Cross enthusiast, asked me to study with her to-night; so must be getting along.

Yes, Honey, it was wonderful to be together for those eleven months.  Wonder what it’s like to live more than a year together!  I know I’ll love it and can hardly wait!  You are so grand to be with.  Hurry back.  I’ve got bushels of flute dances all saved up.

With my love,
Bev
