Hi David,
What a great idea! I really like Ms. Steen a lot. She helped me to improve my English so much. I’m sad to see her go, and this party is the best way to say “Thank you and goodbye.” I can help to buy some of the food and drinks. I can help to bring Ms. Steen to the party. I already have a great idea about how to do that.
