This is a repost of my April Fools' Day post with an uncorrected scan of the original post card for the sake of historical correctness.

Dear Daddy:
I am just starting to write a letter to mama, & I thot I'd send you a card.  Are you going to come down and drive thru with me?  How do you feel now, papa, better I hope.  It won't be long now until I'll be home, we are getting almost thru downs(?) here.  I was at Alva yesterday; Well, bye bye.
Lovingly,
Jessie.

This is the sweetest letter I have ever read. The innocence of the child and its strong bonding with his parents is truly reflected in its words.
