Body: Dear John, I'm sorry that you could not come to my birthday party last weekend. We prepared all week for the party and there was a lot of food! Martin helped me with the planning. He decorated the living room and did the shopping. Dad bought me a notebook which I really needed and Anna, my sister, bought me a great shirt with black and white stripes. Anna is the manager of a clothes shop so she knows what is in fashion. I wore it for the party and it looked really cool! I hope I get to see you soon! Regards, Ben
