Dear Daddy –
Another Sunday and more rain. It rained on Easter Sunday and John as been checking on the rain for seven Sundays. This is the 7th and it has rained every Sunday since Easter. I still can’t say whether that proves anything. It was so hot and close when I got up this morning – Mother said she didn’t feel like going to church so I went. The boys didn’t know I was there and I sat about two rows back of them – They acted good enough, but as soon as the service was over, darted out the side door and got home without knowing I was there. That is the first time I had been to church since the Easter Services but I would rather have the boys keep their church habits – when D. gets a little older I might try to take him. He is having a time now in his pen. He is playing with a pillow. His third shot seemed to bother him a little, but it was so hot after he had it. The spot is about gone now and he is as happy as every today. We can’t sit out in the yard now – We just had a hard shower and it keeps thundering like more is coming. The wind blew hard for a few minutes like something was going to happen, but soon quit. I saw the Henderson baby – I think the last one you delivered before you left – It doesn’t look well. He is 13 mo. old and weighs not a pound more than D. He looks like he needs vitamins. I took J. & M. to the band concert last night – there was the usual Sat. nite mob in town.
Love Mother

I cannot remember the Henderson kid’s first name….but I do have in my mind the image of his thin face.
You know after I read the bit about the Henderson birthday, I looked at your high school memorabilia that I have and there was no Henderson in your class. On your 1st grade class picture, it looks like one of the students had the last name Henderson, but I can’t tell which because the photograph was glued into an album, and I haven’t gotten all of the cardboard off yet. So maybe someday I will unravel that mystery.
Under surveillance! LOL “The boys didn’t know I was there and I sat about two rows back of them – They acted good enough, but as soon as the service was over, darted out the side door and got home without knowing I was there.” 🙂
Very interesting mention of the Henderson baby. As I recall there was a kid named Henderson in my grade school classes, and he was always sickly. And I think he may have died before reaching high school age. But my memory is very fuzzy about it.
“there was the usual Sat. nite mob in town.” LOL 🙂
