Dear Babs
Well darling you are five now I bet you don’t half feel a big girl. I will send your paints as soon as I can but I think you will get Daddie’s present on your birthday.
I was ever so pleased with your photo we have got one in the kitchen. The painting is beautiful you certainly put a lovely smile on for me to look at always didn’t you dear. Daddie was delighted with his wallet & takes it to work with him & shows it to all his mates. Thank you so much dear for the card will thank John for sending us one as well. With lots & lots of love
From Mummy & Daddie XXXXX
