A
HOSTESS
Dear Amy,
What a
delightful shower you held in my honor!
I can't remember an afternoon that
passed so quickly.
The food was surpassed only by your
thoughtfulness. And the beautiful
cake—well what can I say—I ate too
much and then stayed too late, but
that's what happens when you're having a
great time. I think the baby received
everything and then-some. It was the
lift I needed here in the last month. My
sincere thanks to you.
Love,
Kimberly
SHOWER
GUEST
Dear
so and so,
It was wonderful seeing you at the
shower Amy gave. How thoughtful of you
to bring the baby that lovely layette.
I'm sure it will be one of the most
useful gifts our baby receives. This
wonderful wardrobe will get our baby
started in style. Thank you for
selecting such a great gift.
All my love,
Kimberly
A
RELATIVE
Dear
Mom,
Wasn't it so sweet of Amy to give me
and...... (baby's name) a shower? Mom
you out did yourself—while everyone
else thought of the baby, you thought of
me. The lovely gown, robe, bras, and
panties will come in so handy. I've
already packed them in my bag for the
hospital. I will be the prettiest
patient because of you. Your
thoughtfulness is overwhelming. I can't
wait until our
baby calls you
grandmother.
Love you always,
Kim
Dear
Aunt so and so,
Mommy says I must send you a thank-you
for the lovely engraved silver spoon.
Daddy says that from the amount of milk I
consume it won't
be long before I'll be able to hold it
with my two little hands and eat with
it. Please come and see me soon.
With all my love,
Your new nephew,
Mason
GROUP
GIFT
My
dear friends,
I'm simply delighted with the car seat
you so graciously gave me last week. It
is exactly what I had in mind for the
baby. I'm looking forward to welcoming
the baby into our home and your gift
will make his trip home from the
hospital safe and give me peace of mind.
I will be thinking of you every time I
put the baby in it. Your thoughtfulness
is so appreciated.
Sincerely,
Kimberly
If
a gift comes
from a large
group or club,
then it is
proper to write
a letter that
can be read
aloud to the
entire group.
When a smaller
group, say three
or four
"pitch-in"
to buy one gift,
be sure to write
and thank each
person
individually.
A
BABY GIFT
Dear
so and so,
Without even looking at the address on
the package, I know this pretty pink
outfit had to be from you!
There's just no one who can shop for
such a beautiful gift for our little
one. We both send our thanks.
I can't wait for you to meet her!
Love,
Kimberly
