Laura Davis letters to her husband Lloyd Davis, November-December 1942

1942-11-03 Laura Davis to Lloyd Davis Page 2

really nearly as much, the bit we get put into our letters, as we had when we were together. Some couples don't appreciate each other until they are separated or they are sick or something. We enjoyed and were grateful for all the blessings we had, both now and when we were actually living the moments too. I'm glad for that for our own sakes first and then for the satisfaction to your mother, and then for my parents. Mother wrote in a letter a couple weeks ago that she thought you were a good man. I'm naturally all the happier to think my folks really like you when you are my mate and the one I love. Dad likes you too. And Tom is all for you, I can tell the way the men ask about you and consider you even if they don't say so directly to me like Mother did. Of course what is important first is just your and my feelings, but if our relatives feel good about us too we can feel that much better.
