Dear Ann, I was very glad to hear from you. I haven't written for ages because of my school activities. You ask me to tell you about holidays in my country. With a pleasure. The eighth of March is my favourite holiday because it is a holiday of all women not only in our country. This is the day when we congraduate our mothers, grandmothers, sisters, teachers, girls and even unknown women. It is a international holiday. Many of us give some gifts our mothers and other women. Men, sons, brothers try to be loving and polite, they clean the house,and even prepare dinner.There are many flowers this day! Women are happy and want this day never end.. I like this holiday very much because it is the beginning of spring and as a rule the weather is sunny and warm. Now tell me about your favourite holiday. That's for me today. I have to go to school club. Best regards to your family. Write soon. Yours Anita
