Dear Emma,
I hope you are well and sorry I haven't written for a while! It is Christmas Day now, so wishing you a very happy Christmas!! I hope you are having a lovely day. I have some presents for you (see photo below), so hope you like them! I haven't posted them yet sorry but will do that (I'm ashamed to admit but I hadn't posted your birthday presents yet , so I'll do that at the same time!!!). I hope you like them all in any case .



I was at church this morning and I'm going off to see my friend Alex and his sister, Nancy, straight after this. They are both in Hedley Sutton retirement home at the moment. It will be great to see them. I also spoke to Grandma and Grandpa in New Zealand this morning. They are both fine and are going to have Christmas day with my uncle Colin and aunt Nina.

I also went to a carol service at Edgar's Mission a few weeks ago. Edgar's Mission is a farm sanctuary that looks after farm animals that wouldn't have a home otherwise. I have been doing some volunteer work there some Saturdays and it is a really great place. Working there is very peaceful and therapeutic!

I hope everything is going well for you Miss Em. I'm thinking of you often, so hope you can hear the good thoughts .

Take care Emma and hope we can be in contact some time in the not too distant future!!

Lots of love,
Aaron xxxooo
