亲爱的劳拉:

希望你和你那可爱的孩子一切都好!很抱歉这么久才给你写信。我在布法罗一切都好,正忙着入驻新的分公司。我在这里的新办公室小了一些,我还需要一些时间来适应新的环境。不过这里的人都非常友好,给了我许多帮助。我想知道你和小宝宝过得怎么样。他现在一觉睡到天亮吗?你如果有时间,给我发些照片吧。我很想看看他的照片!

保重!

Dear Maria,

Thanks for your note, I was happy to hear from you and hear how you are doing in New York. I am glad to hear you are settling in so quickly.Henry is fine, sleeping better but still not through the night.Even though I feel exhausted sometimes, I still think having a little one has enriched my life in so many ways.You will be amazed on how much he has grown.Any chance you might be back in Los Angel es for Christmas?I'd love to catch up.Let me know what your plans are.

Sincerely, Laura

P. S.I hope you enjoy the pictures!Let me know if you have problems opening the attachments.

亲爱的玛丽亚:

谢谢你的问候。收到你的来信,得知你在纽约的近况,我感到很高兴。知道你这么快就迁入新的分公司,我很欣喜。亨利很好,他睡得好一些了,不过还是不能一觉睡到天亮。虽然有时候我感到筋疲力尽,但仍觉得小宝宝让我的生活变得异彩纷呈。看到他长得那么快,你会感到惊讶的!你有可能回洛杉矶过圣诞节吗?我很想知道你的情况。告诉我你的计划吧。

诚挚的劳拉
