President Roosevelt writes to his son Archibald B. Roosevelt about family life in Washington, D.C. He wishes that he was with Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt and Ethel Roosevelt visiting Archibald and his brother Kermit Roosevelt. Corinne Roosevelt Robinson and Douglas Robinson are visiting currently, and Roosevelt has enjoyed seeing them. Roosevelt has offered to read to Quentin Roosevelt in the evenings, but he has been too busy, and Roosevelt thinks he may be grown up enough where he would prefer to read to himself now.
