It was20 fun to grow up with a little sister.
close
 
My sister and I are close, and we see each other often.
 
In this case 'close' means21 something like friendly22 or intimate23.  If you are close to someone24 they know about your life25 and your problems26.  You feel comfortable27 with that person28.  Notice the following:
 
She is very close to her mother.
We became29 really close after the business30 trip.

letters

A 'letter' is something that you write on paper and then send to communicate33 with someone and tell them what is going34 on in your life.  Letters are not as common35 now because most people communicate through e-mail because it is much faster.  Notice the following:
 
I think it's fun to receive36 letters.
My parents saved37 all the letters from when they were first dating.
in contact with
 
Are you in contact with each other every day?
