Writing a pen pal letter: Please help!

Hello all,

I am learning Spanish and to help me do so I have starting writing emails to a friend of mine in Spain. Could you please let me know if this sentence is correct:

Espero que estés bien y yo realmente deseando ver la próxima Pascua.

I trying to essentially say - I hope you're doing well and I really look forward to seeing you next easter.

Does this make sense? I'd really love someone's opinion!

Thanks so much
