My dear Surabhi
How are you? I am fine and pray for your well-being. Last week I was very busy with poster competition. It was organized by our school on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of India’s independence. The students of five to eight took part in this competition. They all praised to achievements of India during the period ranges from 1947 to 2011. I also made a fine poster on the freedom struggle and the sacrifices made by freedom fighters. That was a great day for all of us. We enjoyed it a lot. Rest is ok. Please do write back soon.
Your loving friend
Sumitra.
