What did you think about as you read the womens stories?

When I was reading this, I felt confused at first, but I understood it better when Mr. Venable expained it in class. It's hard to imagine what those women were going through. They had to work hard just to live, and they only got enough food to survive. I can see why they did it though. They had to live and practice their religion freely. The wars that were going on at home were preventing them from freedom, and they needed an escape. Affra and Judith were really brave for leaving everything for their families. They sacrificed a lot, but I think in the end they were happy with their decision to leave.

Hey! My name is Morgan and I'm 13 years old. I love music and volleyball. I play guitar, and I love it! Music is like my life (so is my iPod) and I have no idea what else to say about that so... anyways. My favorite subject in school is Social Studies. I dont really know why, I just always liked it and it's always been easy and interesting to me. I don't really like SC history so far though. The sheet I'm going by to tell you all this says "tell your buddy about your hobbies and what you like to do in your free time" three different ways, so I think I'm done. I can't wait to hear back from you:)
