again tell me more about her. I want to know about Aunt Seba and Grace too. Tell me about everything — your school, the chickens, cats, Fido, Hawley's and whatever else you can think about.
When I take another long trip I will have more to write about and will then write to both you and Psyche.
I hope that you had a nice time during the summer at home and at West Point, and that you helped Mamma take care of the baby some of the time. Didn't you? Of course you did though.
Now that summer is over and you are going to school you will be quite busy learning to read better, to write and to do number work. By the time I come home you will know how to read nearly everything nearly as well as Psyche does now.
I will write a letter to Psyche pretty soon, but can't think of anything to write to her today. Just tell her not to feel slighted for I have written more letters to her than I have to you.
with a hug and a kiss to you and all the others, I am your papa,
Lawrence Bruner
