Dear Lamwaka,
My name is Ashley and I am 9 years old. My much older sister gave me a black beanie hat with bear ears. My nickname is "Brown Bear" so the hat fits my personality perfectly! We were so excited to see a photo of you and now I know who made it. It's really soft. Thank you so much!
Love, Ashley and Big sister Joleen

You are a special light. Never stop dreaming and never stop working hard to accomplish those dreams. I am confident you will achieve all you want and much more. Many blessings upon you and your loved ones.
