Dear Jessica
The reason I am writing to you is to congratulate you on the new chapter in your life. I am incredibly happy and proud of you.
To begin
with, I would like to remember all the days we spent together as we were young. I cannot get out of my head all our moments, they were so special for me. And also
, I remember a young version of you, who always wanted to be a lovely mother. Dreams come true. Therefore
, I wish you and your baby the best in this
world, and may she grow up healthy and joyful.
Consequently
, of course, I cannot wait to see you. Text me as soon as you get home so we can have a little party. If it is necessary, I can call my boss and take one day off. I can pick you up whatever
time you want and we can go to your home or to mine.
Change preposition
at whatever
In addition
, tomorrow I'm going shopping so could you help me and choose what I should buy between a bed or an inflatable swimming pool for the baby.
I look forward to your reply
