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

1942-12-16 Laura Davis to Lloyd Davis Page 1

Wednesday
Dearest,
I mooched a ride to Mt Vernon and 19th & walked on home so I got your letter this morning. I was eager because I had not had one since Saturday. Such a sweet and loving letter. This is an extra note that I've snatched a minute to write to you. It isn't much in size or looks, but I hope you'll think it is worth the time and postage. Do you? Wouldn't some people think we were silly to do little things like this? But I'm so happy to have some one I can write such things to and be so honest while I'm doing it and feel that you share and return the feelings. And to have a husband who writes that it is true love between us seems so wonderful. When I'm feeling so especially good because you are so good to me I feel ashamed I ever have thought I had hurt feelings over anything. But no one wants or intends hurt feelings in our little family of two, so I hope you understand I feel that way about it even if sometimes I did seem to act too sensitive. The big thing is we love and we care and so we'll have that to overshadow

Wednesday Dearest, I mooched a ride to Mt Vernon and 19th & walked on home so I got your letter this morning. I was eager because I had not had one since Saturday. Such a sweet and loving letter. This is an extra note that I've snatched a minute to write to you. It isn't much in size or looks, but I hope you'll think it is worth the time and postage. Do you? Wouldn't some people think we were silly to do little things like this? But I'm so happy to have some one I can write such things to and be so honest while I'm doing it and feel that you share and return the feelings. And to have a husband who writes that it is true love between us seems so wonderful. When I'm feeling so especially good because you are so good to me I feel ashamed I ever have thought I had hurt feelings over anything. But no one wants or intends hurt feelings in our little family of two, so I hope you understand I feel that way about it even if sometimes I did seem to act too sensitive. The big thing is we love and we care and so we'll have that to overshadow [12-16-42]
