  4. I found two letters from you and two letters from Yuyi from when you were in Africa. I am so happy I saved them! It is so funny to see what was going on in my life then that you were asking me about :) And Yuyi's closing to one of them I just love. "I bet you are doing fine in your daily walks of life."
