[26 February 1917]
be thinking about me. It will be very good for the little one if it stays nice and fine so that you can get about. I wonder what will it be like and will I see it soon It is hardly 3 months since I left and it will be three months more before it comes. If we had been in this country a month earlier we might have been thinking of a possible leave before the summer. As it is I am very much agreived there wont be any for us. It will all depend on the military sit. & that is obscure enough God wot. Still we must be consoled that this season to come will probably make everything much clearer and indeed it looks as if it might bring a decision. Goodby my dearie & all my love.
