Dear Penelope, Many congratulations. I'm extremely elated to know that you have given birth to a baby boy. I hope your kiddo is doing fine and you are recovering well from the C-section. Anyway, I wanted to surprise you and your infant with a gift, but later, I thought I would ask what would be useful because I want to give you something that you can remember for a long time.

Also

, I will be visiting your town next week and planning to stay there for a couple of days at the Royal Hotel. So, I would really like to meet you and your little munchkin. I would really appreciate it if you could let me know when can i meet both of you. Anyway, I was thinking of gifting you a baby crib or a dining table and chair set which might be useful.

However

, please let me know if you would like me to buy something else and I would be more than happy to purchase it because I want you to use them and not end up in the storage room. looking forward to your reply. warm regards, Maya
