Dearest Yve.,
Gee I getting tired of being so far away from you. It seems like such a long time since I left but its [sic] only been two months and these were a lot of times we were apart more than that, but now I seem to miss you more. I can’t seem to wait until december to get home. I want to go now + know it won’t do any good to want to, but I do so I guess its [sic] just me. I’m so darn lonely that it just this bad. Well darling I got another letter from you and I’m glad you’re getting the coat I hope you’ll like it as well as I do. I think you look sweet and nice in it. You’ll be able to wear it when I get home. I think it will still
[Page 2]
fit don’t you? Well darling nothing new happened to day [sic] as usual. I’m now sitting on my bunk and writing you. I wish I was home using your desk instead of this foot locker that I’m using now. I love you darling and I guess that’s all I can say. How [sic] our little girl coming? I’ve change [sic] my mind I think we will have a little girl instead of a boy but I’ll be satisfied with one of each if you think you have it in you. Gee darling I think your [sic] swell and I love you so much that I’ll never be able to tell you how much. You know darling I think your [sic] the most wonderful beautiful darlingest (if there is such a word) and musky mushyest girl in the world and I love you so very very much. Don’t ever change darling will you. I love you. As Ever.
Howard
