Dear Yvette,
I got a letter from you to day [sic] and I’m sorry if you took it all wrong about what I said when I wrote that you’d do what you wanted to do anyway. Darling I was only kidding and I”m really sorry honest! You know darling I love you so much that anything you do is o.k. with me. Well darling as it stands now I might get a pass after all but it wouldn’t be for christmas [sic] it would be afterward but I still get two days off christmas [sic]. Darling I don’t know weather [sic] I’ll be able to meet the 4:10 train on account of a parade saturday [sic] but if I’m not waiting there take a cab to the u. s. o. and wait for me there and I’ll be in as soon as
[Page 2]
possible. Well it snowed again to-day just enough to cover the ground but its [sic] almost all gone now. I hope it gets warmer now because I don’t like this cold weather at all. Well darling I don’t know what to write any more. I could say a lot if you were here but I just can’t put it in writing. The day seem [sic] to drag so and gee darling I love you so very much. Good night darling, I love you very very much and I wish you were here to keep me warm. I love you. As Ever.
