My dearest Hal,

Today it has been so cold and windy that it feels as though winter were here to stay. Spring is certainly taking a long time coming. I have many irons in the fire and don’t seem to be getting very far with any of them.

One thing I have gotten done is to plant my roses. I think I wrote you that I had decided I would rather have some rose bushes that would last than a corsage that wouldn’t. I hope that is all right with you. You will have a chance to enjoy them with me when you come home.

I have so many plans and dreams about the home and life we are going to have together when this war is over. Wherever you are will be all right with me if I can be there with you. It seems to me Sam and I are always planning something nice to do when “Daddy comes home.” We miss you very much, but try not to fret too much. Our part seems to be just waiting, but we try to do it as well as we can. Hurry up and win so you can come home.
