Dear Mr and Mrs Doe, Hope you are doing well. I was really happy to see the letter with the invitation to Chris's surprise birthday party next month, and the movement I got the letter I was really glad that you remembered me. I would say that Chris will definitely enjoy the movement since she really loves to have parties and gatherings with her friends.
Moreover
,
last
year she was unable to celebrate her birthday
due to
that terrible accident that happens to her. Unfortunately, I will not be able to be there for her birthday,
due to
some unavoidable reasons, specifically, my
last
year's exams are going to be held on those days. I really wish I could be there for her and wish her a blessed year ahead. After my exams, I have a holiday for a month and I am planning to visit her since I was unable to see her
while
she was at the hospital for months. So
this
time, I already have scheduled my free time to spend with her in your country. So please expect me there
at the end
of the next month. I will send her a text once I am going to get to the plane. I wish you have a great time. Thank you for inviting me. Yours sincerely, Nimi
