by the time you come to eat them. How I love to prepare things for you. My health is as good as it can be while I am so nervous, But if you are spared to get home I will recrut fast. It will put new life in me. The children are vry healthy & talk of you so much. I have put pants on Jimmie he looks so well & is so large, & the best boy in the world. Maud is so large you will hardly know her, & Paul Vinson is the sweetest little pet in the world He is getting so handsome. How badly I want you to see him. If I get a letter tomorrow evening from you I will not write anymore & if I do not by wednesday get some word I will write again, Surely we will get some particulars tomorrow. I feel better to write for if you are laying suffering I know a letter would do you so much good. O Weaver if these anxious times does not probe our hearts what will, I tell you a wife never knows how to love her husband until she has been tried. I know you are dearer to me ten thousand times today than on the day of our Marriage. God bless you. Kiss
