Здравствуй, дорогая тётя Оля!

Как ты поживаешь? Что нового произошло в твоей жизни с тех пор, как мы виделись? Мы вчера с мамой ходили в бассейн. Ты же помнишь, как я люблю плавать?! Очень весело провели время. Я плавала «на скорость» и научилась нырять с бортика! Вечером я гуляла с Винником. Помнишь нашего йорика? Ты бы видела, как он вырос! Я его научила подавать лапу, выполнять команды «сидеть», «лежать». Он очень умный и озорной.  

Тётя Оля, я так по тебе соскучилась. Приезжай к нам в гости скорее, очень жду встречи.

Пока. Пиши. Жду ответа.

Hello, dear aunt Olya!

How are you?" What's new in your life since I saw you? My mom and I went to the pool yesterday. You remember how much I love to swim?! We had a lot of fun. I swam "at speed" and learned to dive from the side! In the evening I walked with Vinnik. Remember our Yorick? You should have seen him grow up. I taught him to shake paw, to execute the commands "sit", "lie". He is very smart and mischievous.  

Aunt Olya, I missed you so much. Come to visit us soon, very much looking forward to meeting.  

Bye. Write. Forward to hearing.

Your niece Irina

Твоя племянница Ирина
