Dear Benter,

　　You have been away exactly two weeks today but it seems more like two years to me!

　　I’m glad to hear you’ll be back soon. Are you coming directly home, dear? Or do you plan to make some stops   36   the way? I hope you’ll be home in  37  for Patsy’s birthday next Sunday. She is  38  you to show films to her  39  friends.

    Patsy keeps asking every day  40  you’ll be back. She says you never  41   that story you were telling her about  42  train that lost its “ toot”(喇叭嘟嘟声). You’d better   43   and think up a good ending  44  it. You know how Patsy is? She  45  be happy until she knows exactly what ­__46   to the “toot” and  47  the little train got it back  48  !

　　Everything at home is fine except that we  49  you so much! I’ve been  50  with the spring cleaning. Yesterday I had Cora  51  in to wash the kitchen walls and she did a very good __52  of it. The kitchen looks as though it’s been repainted. I made some new yellow curtains, and they  53  very beautiful.

　 I went to see your mother yesterday. Her  54  is all gone and she looks very  55  . Your sister Jean looks wonderful! She has taken off about fifteen pounds since she began dieting. But now she’s complaining that none of her clothes fit!

   Hope to see you before next Sunday.

　 Love and kisses to you!

            　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　     Yours

           　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　            Lynn
