greet them by their first name, like “Dear Alex”.

Dear Muskan
I hope that you are pink on your health. I am fine here with the grace for
god.My happiness knew no bounds when I get to know that you have capped
your school and achieved your dream. I felt so delighted that I wish I were
there to cheer you personally.
The result has proved that hard work, determination and diligence bring good
results. You were so laborious and fervent about it. I know you were very
nervous too, but I was always confident that you would come out with flying
colours
Hope to see you soon. Please be encouraged and continue your hard work.
Your future is very bright. My parents and elder sister have sent lots of love and
heartiest congratulations.
With lots of love and best wishes.
Yours lovingly
Shefali
