Smile letter to a son

Un po' vecchiotta, ma sempre bella da rileggere.
a bit old but still good
Caro figlio,
Dear son
ti scrivo queste poche righe perchè tu sappia che ti ho scritto.
I write to you a few line so you know that I wrote to you.
Se ricevi questa lettera, vuol dire che è arrivata, se non la ricevi, fammelo sapere, così te la rimando.
If you receive this letter means that arrived if you don’t receive it, let me know so a can send it to you again.
Scrivo lentamente perché so che tu non sai leggere in fretta.
I’m writing slowly because I know you cannot read fast.

Qualche tempo fa tuo padre ha letto sul giornale che la maggior parte degli incidenti capitano entro un raggio di un chilometro dal luogo di abitazione così abbiamo deciso di traslocare un po più lontano.
A wile ago your dad read on a newspaper that is most like that accident happen about a kilometer away from your house, so we thought to move a bit far.
La nuova casa è meravigliosa, c'è anche una lavatrice,ma non sono sicura che funzioni.
The new house is really beautifull, there is even a a washing machine, but i’m not sure it works.
Proprio ieri ci ho messo dentro il bucato, ho tirato l'acqua e poi il bucato è sparito completamente.
Just yesterday i put the washing in I flush the water and all the washing disappeared.
Il tempo qui non è troppo brutto.
The weather here is not bad,
La settimana scorsa ha piovuto due volte: la prima volta per tre giorni la seconda per quattro.
Last week rained two times: first time rained for 3 days, the second for 4
Ti voglio anche informare che tuo padre ha un nuovo lavoro: adesso ha 500 persone sotto di se, infatti taglia l'erba nel cimitero.
I want let you know as well that your dad has a new job now he has 500 people under him, he now cuts the grass at the cimitery.
A proposito della giacca che mi avevi chiesto, tuo zio Piero mi ha detto che spedirtela coi bottoni sarebbe stato molto caro (per via del peso dei bottoni).
About the jacket you been asking for, your uncle Piero said that it would be too expensice send it with the buttons on (as they are too heavy)
Allora li ho staccati. Se pensi di riattaccarli, te li ho messi tutti nella tasca interna.
So I took them off. If you want to sew them back on, I put them on the inside pocket.
Tuo fratello Gianni ha fatto una grossa sciocchezza con la macchina: è sceso e ha chiuso di scatto la portiera lasciando dentro le chiavi.
Your brother donne something stupid with the car: he got out, and closed the door leaving the keys in.
Allora è dovuto rientrare a casa a prendere il secondo mazzo, e così anche noi siamo potuti scendere dalla macchina.
So he had to go home to get the spare keys and so we could get out of the car as well.
Se vedi Margherita salutala da parte mia. Se non la vedi non dirle niente.
If you see Margherita say hya from me, if you don’t see her don’t tell her anything.
Adesso ti saluto perché devo correre all'ospedale, tua sorella sta per partorire, ma non so ancora se avrà un bambino o una bambina perciò non so dirti se sarai zio o zia.
Now i need to go because need to rush at the hospital as your sister is having a baby, don’t know yet if she ‘s having a boy or girl so cannot tell you if you are an uncle or an aunt.
Un forte abbraccio dalla tua mamma che ti vuole tanto bene.
A big cuddle from your mum that loves you very much.

PS. VOLEVO METTERTI ANCHE UN PO DI SOLDI, MA AVEVO GIÀ' CHIUSO LA BUSTA.

P.S.
I wanted send you some money, but I already closed the envelope

Oh my god, thanks so much isola for this joke, it was completely new to me.
I adore that kind of irony, and I was literally rofl (rolling off the floor laughing)

Aliena that was a spelling mistake, BUT you are not completely right.
Purely theoretically, IF the floor was suspended in the air, let's say a platform at 4ft above ground, and you would keep rolling on it until you fell, well that would be rolling OFF the floor laughing

But Zidanie.. if the floor was suspended like a platform.. it would be a platform and not a floor!

What else can we argue about?
