Christmas is the biggest festival of the year in most of Britain. Celebrations start properly on 24 December, Christmas Eve, although there have been several weeks of preparation beforehand. The Christmas tree and all the presents, food, drinks and decorations have been bought. Christmas cards have already been sent to friends and relations. About a week before Christmas, people usually put up their decorations and decorate the Christmas tree with lights, various colored decorations and an angel on the top. Family presents are usually put under the tree.

Mary Allen là người bạn tốt nhất của tôi - như em gái tôi không bao giờ có. Chúng tôi đã làm tất cả mọi thứ với nhau: bài học piano, phim ảnh, bơi, Cưỡi ngựa.
Khi tôi đã 18 tuổi, gia đình tôi chuyển đi. Mary và tôi giữ liên lạc qua thư, và chúng tôi gặp nhau trong những dịp đặc biệt - như đám cưới của tôi và của Mary. Sớm chúng tôi đã được bận rộn với các trẻ em của chúng tôi và di chuyển đến nhà mới của chúng tôi, và chúng tôi đã viết ít thường xuyên hơn. Một ngày một thẻ mà tôi gửi trở lại và đóng dấu: "Địa chỉ không rõ" tôi không có ý tưởng làm thế nào để tìm thấy Mary.
Trong những năm qua tôi nghĩ Mary thường. Tôi muốn chia sẻ câu chuyện của trẻ em và cháu của tôi rồi. Và tôi cần thiết để chia sẻ nỗi buồn của tôi khi anh trai của tôi và mẹ qua đời. Đã có một không gian trống trong trái tim tôi chỉ có một người bạn như Mary có thể lấp đầy.
Một ngày tôi đã đọc các tờ báo khi tôi nhận thấy một hình ảnh của một phụ nữ trẻ, những người trông rất nhiều như Mary và có tên là Wagman - Mary's kết hôn với tên. "Có phải là hàng ngàn Wagman" tôi nghĩ nhưng tôi đã viết nó anyway.
Cô gọi là ngay sau khi cô ấy nhận thư của tôi. "Bà Tobin!", cô nói hào hứng. "Mary Allen Wagman là mẹ tôi.". Phút sau tôi nghe một giọng nói tôi nhận ra ngay lập tức, ngay cả sau khi 40 năm. Chúng tôi cười và khóc và bắt kịp vào cuộc sống của nhau.
Bây giờ là nơi có sản phẩm nào trong trái tim của tôi là đầy. Và đó là một điều mà Mary và tôi biết chắc chắn: chúng tôi sẽ không mất nhau một lần nữa!
Mary Allen là bạn thân nhất của tôi - như chị gái tôi chưa bao giờ có. Chúng tôi đã làm tất cả mọi thứ cùng nhau: học piano, phim ảnh, bơi lội, cưỡi ngựa.
Khi tôi mười tám tuổi, gia đình tôi chuyển đi. Mary và tôi giữ liên lạc qua thư, và chúng tôi gặp nhau trong những dịp đặc biệt - như đám cưới của tôi và của Mary. Chẳng bao lâu chúng tôi bận rộn với con cái và chuyển đến nhà mới của chúng tôi, và chúng tôi đã viết ít hơn. Một ngày nọ, một lá bài tôi gửi đã trở lại và đóng dấu: "Địa chỉ Không biết" Tôi không biết làm thế nào để tìm thấy Mary.
Qua nhiều năm tôi thường nghĩ đến Mary. Tôi muốn chia sẻ câu chuyện của con tôi và cháu. Và tôi cần chia sẻ nỗi buồn của tôi khi anh trai tôi và mẹ tôi qua đời. Có một khoảng trống trong trái tim tôi chỉ có một người bạn như Mary mới có thể lấp đầy.
Một hôm tôi đọc tờ báo khi tôi nhận thấy một bức ảnh của một phụ nữ trẻ trông rất giống Mary và có họ là Wagman - tên của Mary. "Phải có hàng ngàn Wagman" Tôi nghĩ nhưng tôi đã viết cho cô ấy dù sao.
Cô gọi ngay khi cô nhận được lá thư của tôi. "Cô Tobin!" Cô hào hứng nói. "Mary Allen Wagman là mẹ tôi." Vài phút sau tôi nghe thấy một tiếng nói mà tôi nhận ra ngay lập tức, ngay cả sau 40 năm. Chúng tôi cười, khóc và bắt gặp cuộc sống của nhau.
Bây giờ nơi trống rỗng trong trái tim tôi tràn đầy. Và có một điều mà Mary và tôi biết chắc chắn: Chúng ta sẽ không đánh mất nhau nữa!
