Dear Mom and Dad,
We have some exciting news for you. Maria is going to have a baby! We
didn’t tell you right away. At first the doctor said she might have some trouble
with the baby. Now he says she is just fine. She’s very healthy and happy! She
still works on her painting every day. But she stopped teaching art classes. She
gets tired more quickly now.
There is going to be another change in our lives. We’re moving back to New
York! We wanted to be closer to you and to Jane. It’s much nicer to be near the
family for something important like a baby. Maria grew up in Mexico, and she
doesn’t have a family. So that makes you even more important to us.
Maria is a little worried about working in New York. She will have to start
again there. In Italy her paintings are already popular. But I’m sure people will
like them in New York, too. My job won’t be any problem. I’m still going to work
for The New York Times. I’ll be writing about the United Nations in New York.
We’re planning to move next month.
See you then!
Love,
Ted
