Laura Davis letters to her husband Lloyd Davis, 1945

1945-08-06 Laura Davis to Lloyd Davis Page 2

There needs to be no report to Miss Taft until toward the end of the year and you will be home by then. The vacancy to go on the road that I mentioned still is open, but if you are applying for discharge I have no thought of considering that. While I work, I must care properly for my clients and home pleasures must be built around my job duties. But the decision to take a new job or to continue indefinitely when you are discharged is always second in importance and consideration to our home. I never considered career vs. home like some people. Career and home when circumstances make it necessary or expedient, with home alone as the best objective. Career experiences like I have with my clients should help me to be a better wife, and mother if we have children. We are suited by nature and training to complement each other in family relationships and in work. There are the little jobs I helped with when you worked, like records. And you helped me lots in regard to my cases. We both worked on things around home. Then add to our nature and training the attraction and love of a man and a woman that we have for each other, and we have a family tie to last, and to last in happiness. A mutual respect and faith in each other is our basis, with love and understanding, and then our common experiences
