Dearest Jeanie.-

Well how is mama to-day? I hope you can think of a name for jr. I’m still at a loss for a name good enough for him. by the time we have the next one we will really be running out of names (or am I kidding myself.) I’ll sure be happy when you are up and around again so as I can get all the lowdown! on the whole business mother wrote me about six times I guess she was excited, but then I am still excited and I think its grand. and darling any name you pick out will be swell with me. What does jr look like Barb or Dennis or like old mag nussen? I would sure like to come and visit you in the hospital but I suppose you will have lots of visitors once they are allowed to see you.
