I received such a beautiful letter from Shallon today:
My mother Beverly Sykes,
Let me take this opportunity to thank God who has given me this golden chance to greet you. How are you, my mother? I have taken a long time without talking with you and I thank God for this chance. Really, my mother, I am happy to see my photo copy. Thank you very much for the gift you sent to me.
I have read your letters but I was not happy with your knees. I want a story about what happened to get that damage? But I thank God who has given you that cane which help your knees to feel better. Really that is a good thing.
How is your husband, Ned, Brianna, baby Lacie and your friends? Tell your friends that I love them.
We are in wet season where we are planting millet and beans, which you have said that beans some people call it a super food. You have asked me whether I have ever eaten a cherry. Surely I have never eaten it. Which color does a cherry have?
My mother, I got the position which is the same with last term's position. I was fifth out of eighty one students in our class. I don't know whether next term I am going to get a new position. If it is a new position I am going to increase because our class has many students like two hundred and above students.
I am happy with the verse you sent to me because it has improved me to have love with my friends. I thank God and you very much because you have helped me in many things. When my mother died, I didn't know that I was going to get another mother like you. Praise the Lord.
I think that I will write to you soon. I wish you nice time. May God bless you.
From your daughter, Katusiime Shallon.
