From Melbourne
Dear Melissa and Jolene,
I
wonder if you could help me when you write your next letter to me. I don’t know whether Alan has told you or not
but I have an awful habit of buying books. I buy lots of books mostly for the
kindergarten and I can’t remember which I have sent you. Could you please tell
me the names of the books I have sent you so I do not send the same ones again.
There are not very many good Australian books for children like you so I don’t
want to send the wrong ones.
It will
not be long till Christmas and I suppose you are both going to the next grade
at school. Don’t forget to send a copy of your reports when you get them we
have still got the reports you sent us last year. We like to look at them and see what you can
do.
Ina few
minutes I will be leaving here because Brownies will be starting. Melissa have
you got a photo of yourself in your uniform. It should be the same as the one
they wear here. I know the Brownie
leader here very well.
How are
you looking after your mother now that she has a lot to do. When the climate is
so hot it makes it a lot harder for your mother to do everything. I hope you
help her when you come home from school.
When
the children at the kindergarten see a baby they nearly always want their
mother to get them a baby but their mothers mostly say they have enough
children. You are lucky to be getting a baby in your family. Lots of people
here just can’t afford to have more babies because everything costs so much.
Nobody
has five children like we had. I think it is good to have more children even
though they cost a lot of money.
Love
from Grandma
