"Someone
on the radio said the American home is the foundation & strongest thing in
the world. So many are not, however--
but we are going to make one more and we have confidence & hope that ours
will be strong and an influence to the good for our two boys & two
girls--Fortunately we can't see what is ahead of us, but we are going to go step
by step doing what seems best & I at least am going to leave off wondering
about paths we can't explore, for we can only take one at a time & must
choose one at each crossroads--I suppose the crossroads will be many."
--Letter
from my mother, Winfield, Kans., to my father, Bloomington, Kans., Wednesday, June
25, 1947. My parents did, indeed, end up with two boys and two girls.
