Dear mum,

I hope you are doing well. I was wondering about Lorenzo’s birthday party next week and I came up with a surprise party for him.

The main theme would me the most memorable events of his life. I was thinking about decorating the room with photos of him at different stages of his life: each room for each 10 years of his life. And for the first room I need you your help. I need you to find his childhood photos and I’ll come over and take them to put them on the wall of memories. Also if you still have any old toys that he and his siblings used, please tell me about them! We could also use the a part of the installation.

We also discussed the birthday cake, I would like to inform you that I’ll take care of it. All you will need is to be at ours on 4th May, Saturday, by 12 o’clock, because he will be home at 1pm.

I am very thrilled and excited about this day. I hope everything goes as planned.

See you soon,

Ketty
