Dear Alice, I hope you are doing well!
Firstly
, Congratulations in advance on your daughter's 8th birthday. I am so happy, and I cannot even imagine that she is 8 now. Thank you for inviting me to celebrate
this
wonderful day with your family but unfortunately, I cannot be part of the function. Actually, I am going on a business trip
next
week and it was scheduled for the
last
month. I cannot cancel it as you know
this
is my new job so I have to take on the responsibilities as much as I can.
Moreover
, I already got my ticket confirmed so I am really sorry that
this
time it wouldn't be possible for me to come.
However
, Once I'll be back from my tour, I'll inform you and
then
we'll make a plan to meet up. I really want to meet your daughter soon. Looking forward to seeing you. All the very best. Regards Shikha
