Re: Heartiest Congratulations!

We are delighted to hear of the safe arrival of your new baby.

We are making the necessary arrangements to travel down to your place soonest possible to hold our first grandchild, little Matthew. Thank you for naming him after your great-grandfather, Joanne. I am sure he is ‘as pleased as Punch’ up there.

We are sure that both of you will be great parents to little Matthew; he shall have the best of both worlds: yours and ours! We are the closest living things on planet earth for him.

As for our baby shower gift to little Matthew, your mom and I have decided to set up a trust fund for him. ‘It’s never too late to start saving…’, as your mom always says, Joanne. It is a small amount to start off Matthew’s education funds. It is a token of our love for little Matthew.

God bless you threesome!

With all our love,

Joseph & Eileen
