Dear Peter, 
Thanks for your letter. I was very glad to get it.
Well, as for popular holidays they are The New Year's Day, Christmas, Easter, Mother's Day, Victory Day and others. I think you can find a lot of information on this topic on the Net). OK, I'd like to drop a few words about celebration of Easter in our family. You know Easter is one of the most colourful and interesting religious holidays for children and adults in many countries. For our family this holiday is one of the main holidays of the year.  Every year we are looking forward to this day and try to do our best to prepare well for Easter. I always try to take an active part in the preparations for the holiday. Preparations  are always  funny and interesting. We begin to prepare for this holiday in advance. We paint eggs, bake Easter cakes, prepare a lot of other tasty food.  My granny goes to church on Easter. She always buys chocolate eggs or bunnies for my brother and for me. We usually have a holiday dinner with our relatives on this day. I love this holiday.Now, you've mentioned the ceremony devoted to your finishing of school and I wonder if it usually takes place at school or in some other place.
Will your relatives be present at the party?
Are you going to prepare something interesting for the party?
Hope to hear from you soon. Keep in touch.
Best wishes,
Dima
