Still, I'll have the girls there, and I'm dying to see them again--and I won't have to stay home much, only nights and meals, of course, and Father's always pretty busy with his stars and comets and things.

Besides, it's only for six months, then I can come back to Boston.

But I know now why I've been having such a perfectly beautiful time all this week, and why Mother has been filling every minute so full of fun and good times.

Why, even when we're at home here, she's always hunting up little Lester and getting him to have a romp with us.
But of course next week I've got to go to school, and it can't be quite so jolly then.

Well, I guess that's all for this time.
