mi ask har if them get let out fi chrismass and she say she not sure, it sound like dem want the group to &quot;bond&quot; - meaning spend chrismass together. other than that time, them really no suppose fi visit family.

yes, they stay in dorm like housing.

no, she doesn't have her own computer - they discourage it. there's one computer in the house and she tell me she no really plan fi spend no time on it. mattafact, she want me to writer her letters in <span style="font-style: italic">longhand</span>.

i was quite surprised at myself for the bawling. i love my daughter but we used to fight quite a bit, so mi neva know i would take her parting so hard.

what really threw me though was my younger daughter being so upset, then i realized that it was the first time they've been separated.
