And so I took these which they call "undressed kid" Fabric! I do hope they will fit you. I do wish you could step in my room just now - you and the boys too - and eat these beautiful cherries which I bought on my way home from dinner. I might have to go down again to the old woman on the corner and buy more before you were all filled up. But that I could do - 10 kreutzers, that is 4 cents, buys about all one can eat without getting the stomach ache after. Since I live here I have seen for the first in my life - the little wild woods strawberries. They are very little and very sweet. Uncle Toni thinks them very much better than the big ones - but I believe I like the big ones better.
