Dear Folks

Am safe and happy and everything is OK. Don't worry about a thing. I'll lit [let] you know if any thing is wrong at all as soon as I can. But, don't worry at all. Probably won't heve [have] time to write for a while but will try to do my best to write later. Don't worry!!

Love to all of you
