Question

【题目】My name is Sue. I want to have a special party to celebrate my 12th birthday. After discussing it with my family, I decided to have a Hello Kitty theme birthday party.

Hello Kitty Birthday Invitations

An invitation in the shape of a skirt is a fun way to invite my friends to the party. My sister, Lisa, will help me make the invitations. My mom tells me to send out the invitations 3～5 weeks before the date of the party. My birthday party is on December 21, so I will send out the invitations before November 24.
