I wonder if dreams have a meaning? This afternoon I dreamed that I was lying on my bed with my shoulder uncovered. You came in and gently lifted the covers over it then sat down beside me. When I awoke Mother was standing near me and said that she had just thrown a quilt over me. Her presence in my room evidently disturbed my sound sleep and caused me to dream – but why should it have been you? It was so much like a daydream. And so much like the evening when you were beside me on the sofa.
