IT IS SO NICE TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVEN'T GRANDMOTHER YET. I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN NEITHER FELIX NOR ANY OF YOU. I DO REMEMBER WELL HOW FELIX WAS STANDING BY THE TABLE AND WAS SINGING HIS LITTLE SONG AND LITTLE LILLIE IS A BIG GIRL NOW AND GOES TO SCHOOL. TIME FLIES AND THE YOUNG PEOPLE GROW UP AND THE OLD ONES ARE BREAKING UP. I MUST SAY I AM RATHER WEAK AND THAT IS NOT SO STRANGE, WHEN I'M SITTING HERE ALONE AND HAVE NO STRENGTH TO GO OUT. SO I HAVE TIME TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING, MY NERVES ARE SO WEAK AND MY EYES ARE SO POOR BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN CRYING SO MUCH, BUT I HOPE THAT MY GRIEVING DAYS SOON WILL HAVE AN END AND I WILL JOIN THE FINAL REST WHERE GOD HAS PROMISED TO WIPE OUT THE TEARS FROM ALL THE FACES. I SENT A CARD TO THE GERTRUD DAY (NAMES DAY FOR LILLIAN, WHOSE SECOND NAME WAS GERTRUD) AND TO FELIX' BIRTHDAY THE 13th MARCH AND I HOPE YOU RECEIVED THEM. HERE IS NOTHING NOW TO TALK ABOUT NOW, THERE ARE NEW PEOPLE AND NEW HABITS AND IT IS COMMON THAT THE NEW ONES COMPLAIN OVER THE OLD ONES AND ANDERSSON IS NOT THE LAST ONE TO DO THAT. THERE IS NO TIDINESS WITH ALL THE THINGS THEY HAVE BUILT, THE PIG HOUSE AND THE KITCHEN HALLWAY WHERE THEY WILL MAKE A NEW STAIR AND OPEN UP TO MY ROOM.... THEY DON'T MAKE FRIENDS AND WHEN THEY HAVE BEEN INVITED THEY NEVER LEAVE...... UNLESS THEY HAVE A PREACHER MEN SOMETIMES. I HAVE NOTHING MORE TO WRITE ABOUT.
