My Dearest Darling Wife,
Hello sweet little angel, how is my darling little wife. Awful, awful sweet I know and fine I hope. You had better be dearest. Well darling no sweet letter today but I am sure hoping that tomorrow will bring some. Gee darling it has been four or five days now since we had any mail, so we should be getting some before long now. Gee darling your wonderful letters mean the world and all to me and they are so darn sweet. They make me so awful, awful happy darling and make me feel so wonderful all over. Gosh Honey it gives me the grandest feeling when I can get your precious letters. I sure hope you are getting my mail all right now dearest. Gosh Honey won’t it be heavenly when we are back in each others arms and won’t have to write letters any more. You are so darn sweet darling and I love you so awful, awful darn much.
I am feeling fine now dearest and getting along all right in every way. I have plenty of everything now darling. Well Honey it is raining here again the same as usual. Gosh but I am sick of this weather Honey and will sure be glad when this rainy season is over. It will be so darn swell when I am out of these islands and back in your sweet arms dearest. I sure hope you are having some nice weather now darling and sure hope it isn’t too cold. Well Honey I did a little fixing up around the tent today. Worked on it about all morning. I fixed a stand to put my locker on and fixed a place under it to sit my shoes and fixed up the platform under my bunk and leveled the floor off in the tent real good. We don’t have very much gravel in our tents yet cause it has been so muddy we couldn’t get it in. I guess we are about the only tent that has any to amount to any thing in it. Just about the time you get things fixed up half decent then you have to tear up and take off again. Boy I sure won’t ever want to do much moving darling after all this.
Well darling three years ago today we were engaged or three years ago yesterday I guess it was. I said something about it in my letter yesterday but I had forgotten exactly what day of the month it was until I got to figuring. Gee darling three years now since I placed the first ring on your finger and we told the world that we were going to be man and wife in the near future. I never will forget the night we bought the ring Honey, gee but we were two happy kids. Then when we got the ring and you would bring it with you when we would go out and I would place it on your finger and we would plan the day for our engagement. I could hardly wait that Sunday morning to get the newspapers and see the announcement and the wonderful pictures of my darling. Remember we bought the early edition of the Sunday paper that Saturday night but it wasn’t in there yet. You sure had some wonderful pictures in the papers Honey, just like all my sweet pictures are. I have the two that was in the papers when we were married in my billfold now dear. And then that Sunday morning I came down and you was all ready for us to go to church and just before we left I put the ring on for you, gosh Honey wasn’t that a wonderful day in our life. We were so darn happy and so darn proud of each other, just like we have always been and always will be dearest. And now Honey we are going on our twenty-seventh month of married life. We have been so awful, awful happy since the first day we meet darling and our whole happiness is in each other. You mean the world and all to me dearest, my whole life is based around you darling, the wonderful little girl that has all my love, my whole heart everything I do or think of is for you Honey, my own sweet little wife. Gee darling I love you so awful, awful much and I only wish I could explain it in writing dear. I have tried to many times Honey but it is impossible to do in writing but I will sure be able to when I get you back in my arms and can look into your beautiful eyes and kiss your sweet lips between each word darling. Just last night Honey I had the most wonderful dream about you and me, I could see you so plain dear and it was so heavenly to talk to you, gee but what a let down to awake and find it was only a dream. You are on my mind all the time Honey, day and night. I just think about you and me and how awful, awful wonderful it will be to be able to be together every minute of our time and do everything together dear. I pray to God every day and night Honey to look after both of us and take care of us and take me back to you as soon as possible. I know he hears our prayers and will keep us safe and bring us together as soon as possible Honey. It has been so hard on us, having to be away from each other all this but our time is coming dearest and we will really make up for all this when we do get back together Honey. Darling you are so perfect in every way, the most wonderful little wife in this world and I am so darn proud of you Honey.
I love you so awful, awful darn much and you know I always will dolly. You are so darn sweet and so precious in every way dear. We are so happily married dear and love each other more every day if it is possible for two people to love each other any more than we always have. We were really meant for each other Honey and we are both so thankful to God for bringing us together. Honey please take wonderful care of my precious parts, gee but they are so heavenly and I love them so much. Yours are fine dear miss you so awful awful much. You are the sweetest and most adorable little wife in the world dear and I love you so awful, awful much and you know I always will dearest.
Well sug I guess I had better close for this time and I’ll write you as soon as possible now. I’ll be looking for your sweet letters you dolly. Please take wonderful care of my sweet little wife dear and be awful careful. Remember now dear, chin up and always happy. Tell all hello dearest.
