Dear Mom,

How are you? I hope you are doing well. Don’t worry about me. I am fine and happy. How is the weather over there? The weather over here is cold. Sometimes it rains, but its sunny most of the time. Mom, it is beautiful and clean over here. People are nice and friendly. I like it here. I have one new friend; his name is Tenzin. On weekends he always gives me a ride and we hang out at the Mall of America and play soccer. He is good to me and I am having a great time here. Please, take care of yourself and take good care your health.

With love your son,
Sonam Wangyal
