Dear Doris
            
Your letter has just arrived. I knew it would come at last. To bad the bureau & cold made you feverish & hope you will be better by the time this letter reaches you. I would not be in any hurry about going back to work. you must be tired out. you are all nerves like your father, his nerves are all played out too. I am thankful its pleasant to day. we have had an awful NE storm. yesterday it hailed & then the rain turned into snow ever since Sunday it blew cold & it was no kind of weather to be outside. but the wind got around into the west some time this morning & then the sun come up, so now its fine. I washed out a few things & they are drying on the back line in the sunshine. I am glad the baby liked her little Easter box & trust the dress & apron she can wear when she rides off with you. It is late and Pa will be here soon for his dinner. I have got it on cooking but this letter wont be ready for him to take back with him, but you will get it sometime. I wrote to Lena yesterday I am afraid she is used up like the rest of us, she is also a nervous wreck most of the time. our snow drops & crocus are in bloom & some of the bulbs you sent are coming up also I guess, its been so cold I have not dared to be out in the wind long enough to see. I think things Pa uncovered last week, must have laid pretty cold through the last three
