Dear Art,
Two letters from you today! I think Shirl likes it when I hear from you – I’m always so happy afterwards. She’s lucky I didn’t stand on my head.
Two letters from you today! I think Shirl likes it when I hear from you – I’m always so happy afterwards. She’s lucky I didn’t stand on my head.The day after tomorrow I’ll meet Mother at the Long Island Station about 11 in the morning, then off for shopping and museums. Don’t worry, I’ll be home Thursday night.
This is going to be a very short letter. I’ve decided to do my Historic Research before going home so I won’t have to drag it along with me. I’d like to finish most of it tonight and hear I am already tired. I have a lot of work to do on it so I’ll probably be up till what do they say? The wee hours of the morning? This is the 1st night I feel sleep, too.
All my Love,
June
P.S. Art, I just – wait I’m so happy I’ll start different, like – Art, love, I’m bubbling over! If you were here I’d give you one great big kiss. You’d better watch out – I’m so happy I might kiss anybody. Guess what? It’s a little after midnight and I have just finished – finished, you hear – Historic Research! No taking it home, no worry about it. No nothing. I’m tickled pink!
I could dance all night long, or turn somersaults or backbends – I hate to go to bed, I feel like celebrating. It’s so seldom I get any homework done. I’m even ahead of Shirl! She’s going to finish tomorrow night.
I loved your letters today. I’m glad I didn’t know you when you were in the Navy, too. I would have worried.
I’m too pleased to think. Maybe I can get Shirl to have a pillow fight with me or something.
All my Love,
June
(Tomorrow – a visit to the Frick.)

Those are amazing! Any idea what grade she got on this project?
ReplyDeleteI can't find a grade anywhere on these. The drawings are black ink on tracing paper, inserted into a scrapbook. It's a nice presentation.
