Dearest Elma
The pretty blue and white letter (style parfait) arrived safely in the hands of the faithful post, and has already kept my feet warm for several days. 366 You have just fitted my feet -- I like plenty of room and feel any pinching in my body as a pinching of my thought.
Thanks, sweet daughter. I wish I could say that we are well, but we live in hope of being better.
Always your loving
Mother.
