I am very happy that you are well and that you feel good even without my presence. You see, there are good people. They are your angels and they will watch over you.
Ask God that they stay healthy. Be organized and disciplined and don't make them work too much. we are healthy. Grandma Groff has a very bad cold.
Grandma Sternberg sent a package. We were very happy. We eat a little of it so that it will last longer.
We will be happy if you can also send us some groceries. Don't send a lot at once, but a little and often. We got a postcard from dad. He still doesn't know where we are.
Hearty greetings to uncle and aunt Heinrich, kisses and love you very much, mother.
