Dear uncle,
It is some time since we received a letter from you. I think of you now and then. But for your coaching for my examinations for the tenth standard I would have found it difficult to score good marks. It is only six months since you left India, but we feel that you have been absent from us for a long time. I am going to buy a computer soon. Then, it will be easy for me to send you e-mails often. Father, mother and sister are okay. I hope you are enjoying your stay in the US. Please write to us soon. Wish you all the best.
Yours affectionately (sad).
