Dear daughter, the present is to greet all of you,

congratulating you for your baby girl.

I thank God for keeping you safe.

We are also doing well.

I received your little letter, 2 or 3 days ago, but there is a lot of snow and rain and, because I am always cold, I had not been out until today that is Holy Saturday, tomorrow is Easter Sunday. However, this coming week I am going to the store to see what I can send for the new baby girl.

Did you see? I guessed you were having a little girl. Do you remember that, when Billy boy was born, I also guessed that you were having a baby boy. And see, now I did it again. Well, I am also very happy. May God keep

 

your children and give you patience to raise them, both you and Bill. Well, who is going to baptize her? I hope Bill would want Jess and Helen to baptize her, and that Jess and Helen would want to do it, but it would have to be on a Saturday, since they both work. Well, I am very happy, daughter. Greetings to the children Billy, Robert, Pamela and you, daughter. Receive your mom's love, who wishes you the best of luck.

Regards from Max and from me, your mom.
