Dearest Clara,

Honey I already had your letter written last night, when one of the boys brought in 2 V’s, it was pretty late so I thought it was better to wait until to-day, He just forgot to give them to me. I bet it makes you feel good to get my letters in that short time, I know it does me.

It’s nice that you can sleep that late in the morning. There is know reason why she should feel bad about that. I am glad to know that you could get cucumbers, I was afraid maybe you wouldn’t be able to get any this year. It won’t be as bad as you think when you have to put up things. Be careful dear and I can always help, you bet we will get by. Write often. I write a longer one later.

With all my love and kisses, Johnny
