Dear Richard, I was just coming home from [painting] an interior [with people!]. It was terribly dark today and yesterday, but today I made a pretty good study. I still sleep badly and feel nervous because of that.. .I don't need to come to The Hague for my drawing lessons.. .How long we will stay here [in ], I don't know. I will write you at least in advance. If I don't start sleeping better I will not stay much longer, I think. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)

But in those days the piano was actually what I preferred most.. .But until my eighteenth year I have been hesitating long between both [painting and playing piano]..

Dear Richard, I just received your letter; I will send the money order f 10 [10 guilders] immediately for the swimming of Saar [their daughter, 10 years old]. She seems to be going well ahead, I think, at least if she can jump off the springboard by herself. Her letter was nice and cheerful. Yes I would have liked her to come here [in Heeze] but I am just afraid that I may not be able to work regularly or that she will get rather bored.
