Dear Sanna

I am going to the farm.  Me and Papa are going to make a little log cabin and at the foot of the hill I am going to make a cave.  Down at by the little stream about 20 feet from the foot of the hill I am going to make a bridge from the cabin I am going to make steps in the hill.  We are going to buy two revolvers. We are going to shoot rebbits and squirrels.  I am going to have Papa to buy me a little pony.  I am going to put on my cowboy suit.  I am going to play cowboy there.  I am going to make a little stable to put my pony in the the stable.  I am going to make a little house out of small logs.  I am going to take a shoebox and in the end I am going to cut a little hole and cut alittle hole in the top of the shoe box.  Grandma was sick Friday and Saturday.  I have a cold and a bad cough.
