Dearest Clara,

            Well honey, I got two v-mails from you today, July 1st and 2nd. Sure glad to have from you this soon, I guess the air mail is tied up some place, there isn’t’ any of us getting any. I sure will be glad when I do though. I like them much better and I know you do to. We can’t say very much on these. I’m like you honey, I run out of space too soon, but its better to get one of these than none at all isn’t it? I guess you must be feeling pretty good, you never do say, but I sometimes wonder if you are alright, I hope you got a good sleep after sitting up with Grandma, I am glad to here she is resting better, it’s an awful strain, sitting up with a sick person. I should know I sit up with Mother whe she was sick. I hope your Aunt Florence didn’t lose her job and more so that nothing was wrong.

Well honey, I have to write your other letter so will close this one, if you aren’t careful, you will get behind on your air mail letters to me. HaHa.

With all my love and kisses,

Johnny.
