Also had the one from dad and one from Ken. He really must have had a time waiting for their baby. He couldn't find the hospital so he asked an M.P. and they had an escourt the rest of the way. I guess they got quite a kick out of it. Ken said the baby was dark complected. I wonder why? No one in our family is dark, much. The folks are happy as heck about the whole thing. Dad said he really got big news and good news last week. First the baby, then our plans, and the end of the war. Said he nearly needed a vacation after all that. Guess that more or less takes care of the family news. I'll let you know what they think of all our plans. Golly I'm happy.
