My Favourite (and only) Niece,

Mikaere! How are you? I hope my yearly letter finds you and your parents as well as I am.

How old are you now, eight? I also hope you liked the present I sent you over the mail.

I am quite excited, as my new photography assignment will be in Africa.

I'm hoping to photograph some cheetahs.

But I'm not too sure on the lions. They might eat me.

Well, now I must pack as I leave at dawn tomorrow.

I am sorry I can't write more to you, Mikki.

Until next year.

Your Favourite (and only) Uncle,

John

My Favourite (and only) Niece,

Mikaere! How are you, nine year old? Feeling grown up yet?

How are your parents doing?

The trip to Africa went wonderfully.

I think I got great photographs of the animals there.

I sent some to you, tell me what you think!

My next assignment will be in Madagascar, and I hope to get some great lemur photos.

I really am sorry I can't write more often to you, Mikki.

Until next year.

Your Favourite (and only) Uncle,

John

My Favourite (and only) Niece,

Mikaere! You've turned 10 already! How do you like the gifts you've gotten?

How are your parents?

The assignment in Madagascar was amazing, and I got some lemur photos like I'd hoped, as you can see from the pictures I've sent along.

Now, I have a surprise.

I will be traveling to Alaska next!

You've always wanted to go there, haven't you? At least, that's what you've written to me before.
