Hello my Darling,

I received your cute letter on Wednesday. I’m very sorry my letters don’t get through but as I remember I wrote almost every day. I can’t say that for this week. I haven’t done much writing this last week but I promise I’ll do better here after. By now you have received my Sunday letter. Pease darling, I hope you see fit to forgive me. I didn’t do anything that wasn’t right, except not getting in, but that’s what happens when you depend on someone else to get you home.

I also got a letter from Will today. I received a letter from you written the last of November. He won’t answer it he says he hasn’t your address. He is still on land as he is seeing his sister. He hears from Florence regularly and would like us to spend one evening with his folks and Florence while you’re home. I guess he wants to know how we feel about her.

I can’t say I would enjoy your type of training. It is a bit hard I bet. That isn’t my idea of fun. We still have some cold days and had a little more snow yesterday. I hope it will be a little warmer by the time you get home. I’m just dreaming how you will look. I think about you all the time. I can’t imagine why except that I love you so much that it almost kills me to be away from you. I am really ashamed of myself for ever doing what I did. I haven’t any excuse but I must get it off my mind until I hear what you have to say about it.

Darling, I still love you and by all means still intend to be your wife if you want me. I love you with all my heart and I want to help to make you your whole life a bit happy. I promise I’ll do my best to make the type of life you want. I know I can’t find anyone else I could ever love like I love you. I want to make you happy and I sincerely hope I am given the chance. There can never be another Joe Joe. And I hope you won’t ever find anyone to find my place while I am still around. I want you as much as you want me. I know I will never get tired of saying sweet things to you. I always love to hear you say you love me. I guess our love is just that way.

Mom and I have had a bad weekend. Me all tired out and she had baby Jerry. He is really sick and Dar just can’t take care of him. He has an awful cold and mom stayed up and took care of him. We got my room papered yesterday but I still have to paint he woodwork. Please try to make something out of this. The baby is playing with the pen as I write. He’s been playing and writing all over the paper. He just insists he sits on my lap while I write to you.

I have a lot of work to do and so I’ll have to close for this time. I write more tomorrow. I only hope your mail gets through to you. God bless you darling and keep loving me always.

Love
DeLores

P.s. These kisses I send you are just a sample of what I’ll give you when you get home. Please God let Joe get home shortly after boot camp. I miss him so much and I need him so much. I just have to sit down and talk to him very soon, so dear God let him come home.

Darling, I hope you don’t think I’m silly but that’s just how I feel about it. Don’t feel too badly as you must put forth your best so you can get that leave that we so much depend on. Our beginning of life together. I just must stop or I’ll go on all evening. Bye bye my darling. I love you very much, sweets.
