 My dear folks at Petaluma

            Floyd and Lovis

Just a few lines to wish you a merrry x mas I hope we do not need to go to bed to nigth or many more nigths without hearing from you as it seemes a long long time now since we recived a letter from you and Grace is also waiting to hear from you.

            I dreamed about you last nigth my dream was this, I thaugth you lived at Hungerfords berkeley and I where [were] with you there and Floyd were about to go on a journey for two years both of you felt very bad I try to comfort you but it was of no use when Floyd left he kissed me goodby and then I avoke my face were all wet as I been crying in my sleep,

            I wonder if it is a good dream I hope it is as dreams always comes the opposite when you answer me this you give me the true interpration.

            F.O. took me to town yesterday afternoon it was a cold ride but it is better than walking the town was crowded with poeple but I got through with doing the few things I could do,

            Gus and Grace and their children came down yesterday when I were in town so when I came home they have had their launch and coffee and where gone down to F.O.s, place so I runned down there well F.O. came and got me in his car because I could not have walked down there as I have had and had and have an awful backacke it hurst untill I pulles an uggly face for almost every step I take,

            we all had supper down to F.O.s and than after supper we visited for an hour or so be 4 Gus and family left, and then after FO done his choers him and I went to Preisthood and Relif Sosity meeting your Dad did not go to the meeting as it it to cold for him now to go out at nigths almost or at any time.

            I can tell you that your Dad has a good use for the water bottle you gave us I get it and that old rubber bottle of ours ready at 7 p m and puts it in his bed and I move it around onece in a while so by the time he goes to bed his bed is warm and I leave your bottle at his feet and I take the rubber one and puts it in my bed the bottles stayes hot a long time as the water is boiling when I fill the bottles.

            I hope you are both well and happy as can be We are all as usual, the new baby is fine it is growing like a weed and fat you say and Annie look better now than I ever seen her look before it is now 11 30 a m  your Dad is sitting by the stove in the kitchen asleep and groans like he always does.

            I shall now close wishing you a very very happy x mas,

                                                Lovingly your Mother.
