告知友人产女函

December 18, 2005
Dear Helen,
I’m very happy to inform you that on the 12th of this month I gave birth to a baby girl. She weighs 8 pounds and 2 ounces, and is perfectly healthy. They tell me it was an easy birth, though it sure didn’t seem easy at the time!
We were discharged from the hospital two days ago. I’m still getting used to having to get up in the middle of the night to feed her. But whenever I look at her, I know she’s worth all the trouble.
Sincerely,
Cathy Patterson

亲爱的海伦:
我很高兴告诉你,我在这个月的十二号生了一个小女婴。她有八磅两盎斯重,非常健康。他们告诉我生产顺利,但实际上是那时候似乎不是件易事!
我们在两天前出院了。我尚未习惯必须在午夜时起来喂她吃奶。不过每当我盯着她看时,我知道总总辛苦都是值得的。
凯西‧派德森 敬上
