My dear babyes Floyd & Lovis

            8 p m, The men just left for to go to the Preisthood meeting so that leaves me at home alone, I wonder how you are this evening I suppose you feel rather lonesome now when it is only and mostly just yourselfs to come and go.

            Franklin and his whole family came out this morning they are all fine F. works on afternoons this week he helped me hoe in the garden and I fixed launch for us all before they left. F.O. said he will come out next Wednesday morning and him and I will go upp to the cemetary and fix up the lots for the Decoration Day, I am afraid we vont have any lilacs or snowballs to take upp and put on the graves as they will be all gone by that time but we will have bridal rites & pionas. I wonder if Gust and Grace intends to be here for the Decoration Day Well the time will tell.

            The school here is closed now it was 17 graduates from N Logan this year the[y] had their closing exercises last Friday evening.

            Menerva Law Ormond gave birth to a baby boy last friday I spoke to Hyrum last sarturday in town and he said they were all fine I want to go and see Menerva but I dont know when as I have lots off things to do before Grace comes and I can not as you already knows hurry and get done but just poke along and before I know it I am to lazy to get ready for to go any wheres.

            We got clearer and warmer weather here now but rather cold nigths and there is a heavy dew every morning and so when the sun is comming upp and shines on the dew on the grass it glitters like silver and it looks so pretty.

            The flower seeds you sent me and I planted are now all upp I gave sister Darling a few off those seeds and she wanted to know what kind they are as she said the[y] look like squaws seeds and the[y] look like it to when the[y] peep upp out off the ground I had to lauph when she kept on saying all this as you know how straigth and forward she talks she looked at me when I lauphed at her I told her they are doubble holly hocks and we will soon see how pretty they are. I have planted 36 tomatoe plants and I hope they will grow and have lots off tomatoes on as we vont have any peaches at all this year as the peach trees all froze here and in Brigham to and all over ells [else] last winter.

            Well my dear folks it was not my turn this time to write but I thot I like to talk to you a few minuts in the best way I could and to tell you I love you both even if I can not show it in deeds and now I will close yours or this letter and go to work and write to Joe and also tell him I love him. goodnight my dear babyes your old and foolish Mother
