Joanne, 12, from Tabaco, Philippines, wrote me a wonderful Welcome letter. In my experience, the children from the Philippines write really excellent letters. Maybe it's because they write in English, so no translation is needed for English-speaking sponsors, or maybe it's just because the kids seem so warm and loving. Whatever it is, it's a treat to get a letter from one of my 3 Filipino/a kids.

I think it's great that she wants to be a nurse. Nursing is an excellent profession, and I know that if Joanne works hard, she can reach her goal!
