Gott soll geben es sollen alle unsere Wünsche in Erfüllung gehen. Wir können eine Hilfe von Gott gebrauchen. Was für ein Eindruk (Eindruck) hat auf dich das Brüderlein gemacht. Er hat sehr schlecht ausgesehen die letzte Zeit. Ein Wunder ist es nicht. Was sagt die liebe Citi(?) zu ihrem Schwager? Ist sie mit ihm zufrieden? Heute hat mich Gerhard besucht. Er sagte mir sein Braut hat sich sehr gefreut mit den schönen Brief von dir. Er war ein bischen verschnupft auf uns. Jetzt ist wieder alles in Ordnung. Hast du lieber Helmut an Anchen geschrieben? Sie hat an Albert geschrieben. [Also gut was ist (?) (?) damit wie(?) sie(?) aus/raus(?) können. ]Ich grüße und küsse euch meine vielgeliebten Kinde(r) und wünsche euch alles Gute. Mutti

What will become of us? We also have to leave by the end of April. The consul should hurry up and issue us the visa. I am dissolving/liquidating my household. I give away the furniture for a song. Tante Paula does the same thing. My dear Alfred, I thank you for all your wishes. My god grant that all our wishes come true. What impression made little brother on you? He didn't look well the lately. It's no wonder. What says dear Citi(?) think about her brother-in-law? Is she pleased with him? Gerhard visited me today. He told me that his fiancé was delighted about the letter from you. He was a bit upset/offended with us. But now everything is okay again. Have you, dear Helmut written to Anchen (Annchen)? [I can't make sense of this sentence.] Regards and kisses from me to my dear beloved children. I wish you all the best. Mutti
