New Baby Congratulation Letter

Birth of a new baby is great news. The entire family comes together to congratulate each other and celebrate the arrival of the new one. Wishes and sweets are exchanged and everyone comes to meet the baby. This is indeed the most joyous moment in the life of any parent. No happiness can surpass the great happiness that comes with becoming a mother and father.

Relatives and acquaintances from everywhere take part in the celebrations. Everyone has a unique way of wishing good luck. Some say it with sweets; some with flowers; some with gifts and some with letters. These letters of congratulations contain best wishes and warm regards for the new parents on the birth of their child.

Usually there follow a lot of ceremonies at that time like

• naming a child
• child's first meal
• baptism

While naming the child is the first ceremony that takes place after birth, the child may be named immediately or after consulting the priest. A lot many people call during this time and suggest various names to the child's parents. Some may even include the name in the congratulations letter itself.

Following is a sample of the Congratulations Letter for the birth of a bay.

To
Fred & June Marshal,

Subject- Many many hearty congratulations on becoming mommy & daddy

Dearest Frank & June,

No other day could be as joyous as this one when you have become the proud parents of the little angel. We all are extremely happy and welcome with open arms the little bundle of joy into our family. The youngest and the coolest addition to the Marshal family will be a rockstar, the one the Marshal family would be extremely proud of.

I remember how long you both have been waiting for this moment. The endless sessions of planning and debating; the choice of color for the baby's room, the choice of his pram, the color of his clothes and the most debated topic- his toys. The entire family was waiting for the baby just so that your arguments will get over and both of you will get involved with taking his care rather than just talk and talk.

Now I would like to see my little nephew as soon as I reach Frankfurt. Meanwhile along with this letter I am sending you along a long list of names I have thought for the baby. Please do let me know if you like any of them. Now I would not be reaching Frankfurt until next Friday so I am sending my little one a present along with this letter. So give him lots of love and hugs from me. I just can't wait to see him!

Warm regards,

(Signature)

Agatha Marshal

Note the tone of the letter; very informal. Birth of a baby is a very celebrated affair and when anyone writes such letters on these occasions, he/ she tends to be very excited and thus write it with full heart. There is no need to be formal in your language as the whole point of this letter is about expressing love and affection for the baby and the new parents.
