Hello, Santa Claus! I want to tell you, that I was a very good girl in 2013 and I have earned the best gift from you. I would like to get new skates, which we call Snow Maiden, because the skates I have are too small and very old. Fulfill, please, my dream. I promise you that I will study hard, obey my parents and always be kind and polite. Yours Ritta
Здравствуй, Дедушка Мороз! Хочу сказать тебе, я была очень хорошей девочкой в этом году и заслужила от тебя самый лучший подарок. Мне бы хотелось получить новые коньки-снегурки, потому что мои коньки мне уже малы и совсем старые. Выполни мое желание. Я обещаю тебе, что буду хорошо учиться, слушаться родителей и всегда быть доброй и вежливой. Твоя Рита
