Dear Mother,
The Yule Bell ringing went very well, and everyone told me how brave and dignified I looked. Father says we are still in mourning, so we didn't get to celebrate anything for Christmas. The Yule Bell is for the people, so we needed to maintain that. We spent most of the week in the chapel, otherwise I would have written to you earlier.
I hope wherever you are you enjoyed the holidays. They let us play out in the snow, and I taught Inga and Freddy the song about the trolls. Do you remember it?
With love,
Lars
