HELLO AMERICA.

Hello American friends,
How are you doing? We love you so much in Uganda. We have not celebrated the mothers' day in Uganda because some of us do not have a mother. I do not know if each of you has a mother? Does Miss Cindy also still have a mother? She must be happy if she has. I also still have my mother and I am so happy because a mother is so good.

Have you done any tests this term? What have you been doing recently? We are getting ready for beginning of term II tests.

From your friends,
MIREMBE SUDAT.

Mothers' day in Uganda.

Dear Lea and Kasen,
Thank you for writing to us. We always enjoy reading from this blog. Yes, some of us here have mums but some do not have. But even those with mums do not celebrate the mothers' day.
How do you celebrate the mothers' day? Do you have to buy them some gifts?

Also we do not play the softball and baseball. We play football and netball. We do long jump and short put.
We also have many pests like those flies and we spray them because they spread diseases like cholera.

ABOUT MOTHERS' DAY IN UGANDA.

Dear friends,
It was nice hearing form you. It has been a long while for since I wrote on this blog. I have been busy with lots of new subjects.  I am however doing very well in my new school.
I tell you what; last year I got in touch with my mother after a long period of around 8 or 9 years. I was really very happy because I missed having  a mother. Whereas I am not staying with her, I feel so happy that she is still there. I thought she had died but really amazing that she still lived.
Oh, I really do not celebrate mothers' day here in Uganda and not many people know about it at my school.
It is really very bad not to have a mum because mums are very good.

It is me in my new uniform for a secondary school. Thank you everyone for loving us. How are you doing miss CINDY.
Your friend,
HARRIET.

MOTHERS' DAY IN UGANDA.

Dear friends,
Thank you for writing back to us. We always love to read from this blog.
I hope you enjoyed the "Mothers' day". Actually it is amazing, I did not even hear about that this time. Actually I do not have a mother but even those with a mother do not celebrate the Mothers' day here.
Does everyone of you celebrate Mothers' day in the United States?
Your friend,
GLADYS.

Questions for Uganda

     Thank you for responding to the locust and no we don't have locust. We know not all of you have a mother but if you don't we feel bad but if you do, we would like to know if you celebrate Mother's Day?

     We do have some pests we have flies. Flies really bother us. Do you know what softball is or maybe baseball? Well if you don't we'll tell you. Softball or baseball is a kind of sport when you run a lot. I play softball and it's my favorite sport. I like other sports but it's softball season. 

                Your Friends,

                      Lea and Kasen

Thank you for writing back about the locust. I guess they really are pests. We do not study these in school but they really are pests at home. They are fly's. Fly's get in your house and they buzz around your face and your food. I can not stand them. Do you have them in Uganda?  There are other pests like mosquito's. They are little bugs that bite you and leave little bumps on your skin that are very itchy. This Weekend is Mother's Day so my aunt is coming down for the weekend.  Our class is doing the smarterbalance next week. Do you do state test at your school.

Your friend,

Alison
