     My dearest Baby Visa

It is Sunday evening every thing around and on is as quite [sic] as is in a grave we have quite a snow storm here now starting last nigth acompanyed with a curious warm wind it been snowing all day to day the snowflakes been comming down big and close togather so we could not see Veras house the snow is now a foot on the level it is real winter here now

            your Dad have not been outside to day F.O. came up and he helped me do a few chores the dear old Joseph of old. your welcome letter came yesterday as I expeckted I am sure thankful you two are well and are having such good time I am glad to hear. I wrote and mailed a letter to you yesterday but as there is in your letter a few things to answer on rigth away I shall write and answer you. No I have not recived a letter from you wherein yo told me about the L.D.S. Conference at San Fransisco and if you saw Professor Hickman I would sure like for you to tell me all about it.

            A pair of slippers would sure be a very useful Xmas gift to me your Dad wrote my size is 8 I thank you so very much. There is a lot of sick children around here the measels are raging there is many homes here in N. Logan that is quarantine Always something Phylis Wilhelm is sick with the measels it never rains without it poores. Preston is also full of measels the school that Darold goes in is all exposed so I expeckt they will have it. There is 3 more Ladies in our ward beside Dessis that expeckt babyes one of them is Franses Nelsons vife, then Afton Maughn or Moser. and then Hattie Swenson (Hattie Christenson).

I told you about. It is now 9 p m time for us to go to bed I just hate to go in that north room to bed all alone I gues I am getting unthankful and need punishment so to apriciate the blessings that we are blest with. Goodnigth with an armful of love and a Doz xes I shall write more in the morning.

            Hello it is Monday morning I got up at 7 a m had my coffee and gave your Dad a bowl of hot milk and a bearfot smeard with butter and honey, it is now 9 15 a m just go in the house from being out doing a few chores your Dad is up sitting by the stove he is no better or worse but just the same. this morning our windows were covered with ice before I had fire it have quitt snowing but there is a cold wind and the snow is blowing down from the trees and from the roofs and you know how frozen snow sounds when you walk on it it says knirp knirp knirp ha ha but this is a beutiful country and life after all if we could only be independent. I guess I will humble myself and ask you if you plaese will send me those overshoes you promised to send me I will be so glad and then that little bab or Dickie for my new dress you said I could have this one I had is all a rag now theere were some thing else to, you said I could have I belive it was used ties, I shall pay the postage when it comes here. I guess this is all for this week for all I know yeas I think it be nice when Floyd will be his own boss, Do you think you will Petaluma before April the 1st like you said you would in one of your letters.

            I shall close with an ocean full of love to Floyd and to yourself Plaese take care so you would not tangle up yourself up in to much of this worldly fashion and sosity I be glad when you live in a place where you can to to meetings where you really belong for we dont live of bread alone but of every word that preceeds from the Mouth of God.
