This was a cute card that he sent to his mom for her 73rd birthday on October 27. The card is designed to help a soldier write home to his mom on her birthday. I'm going to try to describe it.
The front of the card is a cute cartoon-style dog dressed in a uniform sitting on his bunk writing a letter while holding a picture of an older cartoon-style dog in a red dress. The words along the top read,
Happy Birthday
To Mom from
her Soldier Boy
Inside, the top half of the card reads,
A man sized HUG and KISSES, Mom,
And LOTS OF LOVE from me
To you, who are just EVERYTHING
A PERFECT MOM could be!
Happy Birthday!
The bottom portion of the card is lined for writing and includes some prompts beside some of the lines. Above the lined portion are the words
Putting one little word right after another--Here's a BIRTHDAY note just for you, Mother!
At the beginning of the first line are the printed words,
Dearest Mother: I
Below that Dad wrote:
wish you many more happy birthdays and lots of good health.
And I wish I could be there to spend the day with you.
Did I tell you I miss you and everyone an awful lot. Hope I get to see you all real soon. Take good care of yourself.
P.S. I love you lots and lots!!!
Gus
