Welcome to the Love Sweetie Podcast! In this episode, Sweetie writes about what was occurring at her home in Doylestown immediately after Easter 1952, and then in the second letter, she writes to her family a story about an issue that had been occurring at the Doylestown Public School involving one of Lewis' first grade classmates and their first grade class teacher, Mrs. Houck.
Finally, at the end of the episode, we get to hear two Mother's Day poems that Sweetie wrote and appended to the second letter.
Check out the website at www.lovesweetiepodcast.com for the family tree, overall timeline of her story, and information on the previous episodes to catch up as you are able to - there is something in Sweetie's story for everyone!
The Love Sweetie Podcast is a unique historical project that features real letters from Kathryn Frances Demaree Graham a.k.a. "Sweetie" that were written during her lifetime. These authentic letters are narrated and commented on by the hosts of the show (who give context on what is being discussed).
It should also be noted that the vernacular in the letters, as disclaimed at the beginning of every episode, are part of the real historic text from 1952, and do not reflect the views of anyone associated with the Podcast, including the creator and the hosts.
