Reserved for Patrick Cullen right, that was the first date I had with you. That is one night I will never forget. Do you remember the dance we went to, the rain, the lonely country road where we parked, me putting my arms around you and asking you if I could kiss you? To think that only a few months passed by and I had to do the same thing, only in a much different manner, and kiss you goodbye. I am glad you like my picture. The fellows around here really had to laugh when I told them I got my picture taken and didn't even see what it looked like. Oh well, if you are satisfied that is all that matters. You wanted to hear what kind of cookies I liked best. That is easy to answer because I like them all. I am glad that your Dad is getting better fast. I know how you fret about it because I know how I would feel if something like that should happen in my family. You tell Helen that she doesn't have to worry about that, that I told her
