Letter from Asma

The following is a copy of the translation of a letter that Asma sent to me shortly after my visit to India. I have made a few comments, which I enclosed in brackets.


My Dear Aunty,

My family members and myself are fine here. We were happy to hear the same from you. I received the Dictionary, one letter, and the photograph. My family memebers and myself were very happy. We all thank you very much for the same.

I like the photo very much. [The photo that I sent was of the 2 of us together, which you see on the Main CCF Page.] My family members and my friends too liked it very much. I have kept that photo on my table. We were happy to know the contents of your letters. After you left I was feeling your absence very much. I too miss you very much.

I got my results with your blessings and by God's grace, I have got through this year. I am enjoying my vacation.

Salma, myself, Siddiq and Feroz Pasha went to the funworld along with Ms. Gangamma. There are so many amusements over there like dasling card, Tora-tora, Merrygo-round, raining tree, and there is a devil like doll which is terribly scaring. We enjoyed eating variety of things. We enjoyed the day well. [This is an activity that we planned to do while I was in India, but didn't have the time. I asked that the social worker, a wonderful gal, take Asma and her younger brothers and sister at another time. My, do I wish I'd been with them!]

Ms. Gangamma and other staff members convey their best wishes to you. I send my love and sweet kisses to you. My family members convey their sincere regards to you.

Your loving child,

Asma
