Sweetheart,

I know I sent you a letter last week and it's now your turn to write but I just couldn't resist to write to you on Christmas. It still baffles me that I'm spending Christmas alone. Well, not entirely alone, but it's still without you.

This'll be a short one as I'm writing from the post office. I hope they spare all of you some work, at least a bit, at least on Christmas, even though it is a battlefield.

I wish you and your whole trench a Happy Christmas and New Year!

P. S. - I forgot to tell you the real reason writing again. Downtown, on the square, a photographer's workshop was making photographs cheap and fast, specially for ladies to mail their soldiers during the Holidays. And you know I couldn't miss the offer so I'm sending you one of myself.

P. P. S. - Don't go around showing me off!

Love,
Your Rosebud
