Dear Papa and Mama,
I miss you two a lot. I wish that I can see you again. But don't worry about me, because I'm okay.
Mr. Kirkland is really nice. Did you know that he is helping me write this letter? I tell him what to write and he writes it. Though, I'm not sure why he is writing in English. But still, he makes sure I'm alright. I have lots of clothes and a nice soft bed. He even cleaned my bunny when I got her dirty by accident. He reads me stories before bed and teaches me a lot about all kinds of things.
I even have a new friend. His name is Alfred. He makes sure to keep the mean people away from me. These people always make fun of me for being French. I don't really understand why it's bad that I am.
It's cold here, much more than home. Sometimes we get lots and lots of snow, especially up north. Mr. Kirkland always makes sure I am bundled up in warm clothes and have warm soup in my belly. I really like his tea and cakes here, though he calls them biscuits.
I made you two pictures. The first one is of Mama, Papa and I. The other is of my new friends here and even the snowman that I made is in there. I hope that they reach you.
I love you two very much and miss you.
Your son,
Matthew
