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

1942-11-03 Laura Davis to Lloyd Davis Page 5

working, or not working, here or elsewhere, I want to do only those things which won't hinder you in feeling you and our home come first. Of course if we make a plan and I have professional or ethical demands as a result of our being in some job setting, I have to subordinate my personal feelings while I'm on a job if they would injure the whole program. That is why I don't want to get any job now that could ever force me to make any such hard decision. I hope all this is satisfactory to you. You say I'm to do whatever seems best, and I know you mean it. But I'll try to write some of the considerations in the problems and I want you to be sure to mention any desires you have or any ideas that come to you. We don't run each other, neither do we go each way alone; we are a cooperative family. Isn't that it, honey? Lee would say we incoporate!
