Dear Willford I want to see you so much but I believe that I can say upon serious reflection that I have not wished you back once untill you have filled your mission although I have had many trials since you left but I find God to be my friend, I feel your absence to be a greate privation and sacrifice for me to make but I hope and trust that you will be the means of doing much good and fill you mis sion in the love and fear of God as soon as possible and come home to me and our little ones as soon as possible with the smiles of heaven resting on you.
