SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1941 We went to town this afternoon. Mother, Robert & I went to Jessie's. Mother & I went with Sis down in town & we did part of our Xmas shopping. Robert cried a good deal so I guess I won't leave Robert anymore with Jessie unless Mother will stay with him. Mother, Rex, Robert & I went to Sis & will spend the night. Listened to Dock's new Radio tonight.
