Dear Rick,
How's everything going I'm very glad to tell you about my lucky day.
First I lost my wallet. This morning when I arrived at school I found my wallet missing,but I didn't know where I had lost it. However,something unexpected happened on my way home after school. As I was passing by the restaurant where I had breakfast,I saw a lost and found notice on its door. So I went in and asked the manager about my wallet. She asked me some questions about the wallet and gave it back to me. You can't imagine how excited I was. You know my wallet is special to me. It is a gift from you. In the evening,I was told that I had won first prize in our school's English Writing Competition. I couldn't believe that I did so well,and neither could my parents. They promised me that they would buy me a new computer.
What a lucky day! Do you think so Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
