Dear Lan,
I’m writing to tell you something about my family. There are four people in my family: my
grandmother, my parents, and I. My grand mother will be 80 next week but she is still fine and
can look after herself. My father is a doctor, he works in a hospital all day. Sometimes he has to
stay there overnight. My mother is a teacher. She teaches in a secondary school near our house.
To me, my mother is the most beatiful woman in the world and she is the best cook, too. We are
a happy family. I love my family very much.
Well, I think that’s enough about us. Please write to me soon and tell me about yours.
Love,
Huong
