It was a letter to cheer them up, and the special message for the girls
came at the end: Give them all my love and a kiss. I think of them every
day. I know they will be loving children to you, and that when I come
back, I will be prouder than ever of my little women. A tear dropped off
the end of Jo's nose. Amy hid her face on her mother's shoulder. 'I'm
selfish,' she cried, 'but I'll try to be better.' 'We all will!' cried
Meg. 'I think too much about the way I look, and hate to work, but I
won't anymore.' 'And I'll try to be a "little woman",' said
Jo, 'and not be rough and wild.' Beth said nothing, but she began to
work hard at a blue army glove she was making.
