Boy! I’m glad that you are actually coming home. I’ll be waiting for you & have a dinner ready. How’s Zat?
I’m really getting very sick of this baching it & nobody can blame me for it in the least.

[So I overheard that] Some of our neighbors will have a baby too …if that’s a fact 69th Ave will be the scene of “doll parades.”

One day less for you and I and Nancy Lee to be apart, isn’t it? We have to make each day count now, haven’t done much for the time I’ve been here.

So Nancy has a big dairy farm… she has something which her Grandpa Polzin is still trying to bring about — they didn’t get that loan yet I understand.

I’m so glad that those flowers reached you in time for the “big day” – Valentine. Yes sir! the sweetest valentine in the world, and you’re it, dearest.

Everybody thinks she’s a sweet baby but they can’t think she’s as sweet as we do, can they, Dear?

She’s getting along just fine, and I feel the same way, so don’t worry about us, Sweetheart. Be sure to take good care of yourself.

I just love to watch her — she’s so sweet, Wallie. She makes the funniest little noises while sleeping, and stretches her little arms so cute. She delights in cuddling up real close to me. We’ll both love her so much, Sweetheart.

Nancy Leigh Dawn was born on this day in Wausau to Mabel & Walter Polzin of West Allis, Wisconsin.

Please believe me dear I miss you more than I would miss my right arm. Won’t you please hurry and come back to me? I wish everything would be over with so we could be side by each again. Then our little nest would be complete again.

…the time from now until then will go so fast — it will be here before you realize it.
Sunday, February 1, 1931
I hope nobody gets the wrong impression because we both love each other more than ever, don’t we Sweetheart?

I miss you more & more my little darling. Last night I stopped in at the Ford Garage & they have a Radio – there was such sad music that I got the real downright blues. Honest, dear heart I almost had to cry.

[Dad’s] chest hurts him terribly so tonight I’m going to see that it’s greased with lard & turpentine — your remedy.
Monday, January 26, 1931
I love you so much Wallie, I didn’t realize how much until now. Take good care of yourself — I will too.

We have to order another ton of coal today. Are you still burning wood? This coal we have certainly heats good — better than coke.

I hope Dr. Reist will keep it out of the paper. “Eight months” babies never live, do they? But “seven months” do, I’ve heard. Whatever it is, we’ll be satisfied — other people don’t count anyway.

I’m a fine one I tell you in a letter that I was returning the snapshot picture then I forget all about it. If I happen to think about or rather if my memory will stretch so far till I finish this letter then I’ll enclose them. Don’t, please, my little sweetheart be angry at me for what I did to one of them, will you?

Did you gather up all the pearls you “cast before the swine” last night? (I’m the swine.) I hope you didn’t lose any.
Thursday, March 28, 1929
You can readily see my dear sweetheart, that those people who give me half of a chance readily can see and also read my character traits. That includes all people who I have occasion to meet. My face and heart are an open book to all and don’t require an airdrill to penetrate. I don’t never have to put myself on guard – no never.

…we both love each other more dearly than ever before that’s the effect trouble should have on love. After every spout of trouble love again appears on top & stronger than before.

…I’ve made you no elaborate funny promises but my fare is honest my heart is in the right place & I have great ambition & persistence & I’ll conquer very easily with a partner in life who is true, sympathetic & inspiring… as I told you I thought you are.

Oh my, oh my! how much do I care for you! More than myself – every inch of me is plugging for you all day long…
Since I met you my dearest, life is so sweet & interesting. Honest before I met you I often began to wonder what life was “all about anyway.” There wasn’t much to hold my interest in it. But now! I’m so glad to be alive and live just for you.

Do you know a secret? Course you don’t but I do & I’ll share it with you. I have your picture on my dresser this morning the sun shone into my room and it shone right on your smiling beautiful face and from the two – the sun & your smile – your smile was the warmest & brightest.

You & I are looking at each other all the time, my dear. The only thing I’m afraid of is that I might take all the looks off of it. Then what? But I hope for one great big pleasantry – that I won’t have to be content with only the pleasure of seeing your beautiful face in picture form but that I can see & talk to you always…
Friday, February 1, 1929
From the moment I saw you that feeling came over me. And I just know that it will continue. I must confess one thing to you, my dear heart, and maybe you won’t believe me when I tell you. The fact is this. I think you might feel the same way about it.
With a Carload of Love...
