Dear grandmother, I know you will not be able to read and understand this letter I have written, but I believe if mummy comes along with it, she will be able to read and explain it for you. My major reason of writing to you this letter is to congratulate you. Yesterday was an international day of aged people. Though I had no gift to give you, I thought about you. I thank God who has kept you for all this long. Dear grandma, it is very rare to see people live over 100 years these days. Having you is such great blessing to our family. I always miss moments when you could tell me stories. I miss staying by your side; I also miss that friendly, caring and lovely talk whenever we were together. I have kept all the stories you have taught me in my mind. I will make sure that all my friends get to know these stories. I would like my friends to teach these interesting stories to their fellow friends too. My dream is to see that all these interesting stories you taught me spread around. Dear grandma, did you know that at the end of the second term I was awarded a prize for being the most disciplined child at school? All this credit goes to you grand mother. The time I spent with you was not wasted, it was such wealth to me. While at your place, I learnt discipline. You taught me how to socialise with friends and how to help them while in need. Though you have a hundred years (100), I pray that your days double. I will never forget you, long live grandma. By the grace of God, live to blow as many candles as possible. I love you and bye. This was your lovely daughter Grace Mukundwa. Ends
