Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m writing this letter to apologize to you. I’m so sorry that we made a mistake about the shipment of vacuum cleaners.

Those vacuum cleaners we sent to you were meant to be sent to European countries, but as the old worker was retired, the new one wasn’t so experienced. Besides, the model number and the price of goods in March and July are so similar that the worker mistaken them.

I am awfully sorry for this and we promise you a replacement shipment. We will also give a 10% discount to compensate.

I do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you and I will try my best to avoid the same accident happening again.

Yours，

Eva

I am so sorry the children behaved so badly when you were baby sitting for us last night. It must have been exhausting for you. I really dont know what got into them, though Jane was running a slight fever this morning, so its possible that she wasnt feeling well.

I told them that if they were going to be so naughty, you would not baby sit them again, and Eric in particular became quite tearful. You really are their favorite baby sitter.

Eric and Jane have both promised that if you will give them another chance they will be "as good as gold." In any case, this is up to you. Please let me know if you would prefer not to take care of them again.
