Dear Crellie,
Here is your two dollars! I am sorry that I did not send it before. Isn't my birthday
watch wonderful? I just love it. It is absolutely perfect.
How big are these amphibious jeeps of yours? Did you and Pete put them together or did
you buy them already built? They must have fun.
How is school coming along? Do you like it or would you rather stay home?

I shall be glad to see how much you have grown when I come home, Crellie.
Love,
Linus
