Dear granny,
How are you, dear? I hope you are taking care of your health. I am sure grandpa too is doing good.
Thank you for the wonderful present you sent me on my birthday! I really felt very nice to be remembered and felt especially nice when I received the whole set of 'Harry Potter' book series.
I enjoyed reading the first book and I am sharing it with my friends too. I am sure to improve my language after reading these books. I will remember you everytime I look at the books or read them.
Thank you, granny, I really appreciate your thought and love. Hoping to see you soon. Bye for now and take care.
Give my love to grandpa.
Your loving granddaughter,
XYZ
