“Welcome to the world to your sweet new arrival! Wishing your family gentle days, restorative quiet moments, and endless wonder as you get to know each other. Please let us know whenever we can drop off dinner or lend a hand.”
“Huge congratulations to you and your family! Please do not think about work for a single second. We are overjoyed for you and look forward to meeting the little one down the road.”
“Congratulations to all three of you. No reply needed to this or to anything else for a while.”
“Congratulations, both of you. I am dropping food round on Thursday and will leave it on the step unless you want company, in which case say so and I will stay exactly as long as you like.”
“Congratulations. You are now legally entitled to send us photographs at a frequency that would be alarming in any other context. We are ready. Delighted for you both.”
“Congratulations on number two. You already know everything I could usefully say, so instead: the offer of taking the older one out for an afternoon stands, permanently, from now on.”
“Congratulations. This family took paperwork, patience and a great deal of waiting, and it is here now. Wishing you all a gentle first few months of getting to know each other.”
“Welcome to the world, small person. Congratulations to your very tired and very happy parents.”
“Congratulations. People will ask about her for the next six months and forget to ask about you, so: how are you doing? Genuinely pleased for you both.”
“Congratulations on the baby and commiserations on the sleep, which I understand you have signed away for approximately five years. Genuinely thrilled for you both.”
“Congratulations to you and your family. Nothing here needs you, nothing here will need you, and we will still be doing broadly the same things whenever you come back. Enjoy every part of it.”
“Welcome back, and congratulations again. Take the first fortnight at whatever pace suits you. Everything has moved on a bit and none of it is urgent enough to explain today.”
“Congratulations to you and your family on the arrival of your child. The whole team sends its very best wishes, and we hope these first months are as calm as they can reasonably be.”
“Wonderful news. Congratulations to you both, and enjoy the leave properly.”
“Congratulations. I expect your coffee consumption to rise to levels that would concern a doctor, and I will be matching you in solidarity. Delighted for you both.”
“Congratulations, both of you. Watching you become parents has been its own kind of pleasure, quite separate from meeting this small person. We are on the end of the phone at any hour you like.”
“A new one in the family, and already thoroughly welcome. We cannot wait to meet them properly.”
“Congratulations. I intend to be the relative who teaches this child things you would rather they did not know. Starting in about four years. Thrilled for you both.”
“Congratulations. Your leave starts properly the moment you close the laptop, and I do not want to hear from you during it. Everything is covered. Go and enjoy your family.”
“Congratulations to you and your family. Please take the leave in full and without checking anything. The team has it in hand and would genuinely rather you were not looking.”
“Congratulations to you both. We are not expecting to hear from you for a while and that is entirely right. When you want food, company or someone to hold the baby while you shower, say the word.”
“Congratulations, both of you. The first months are wonderful and also genuinely hard, and I would rather say so than pretend otherwise. Call at any hour, about anything, including nothing.”
“Congratulations. No reply expected, ever. Food arriving Thursday.”
“Congratulations to you and your family. Everything is covered and none of it needs you. Enjoy the leave properly, and we will catch you up on absolutely nothing important when you are back.”
“Welcome back. We will build the first month around what actually works rather than what the policy says, so tell me early if the shape is wrong. Congratulations again.”
“Congratulations to you both. Take everything you are entitled to and then some. We are fine.”
“There are four generations of us now, which is not something many families get to say out loud. Congratulations to you both. Bring them to see us whenever you are able, and not before.”
“Congratulations. Everything of yours is picked up, written down and covered, so the only thing left on your list is the obvious one. Enjoy it, and take every day you are entitled to.”
“Congratulations to you both. The offer, which is entirely serious, is that we take a night whenever you want one. No notice required and no explanation expected.”
“Welcome to the newest one. Congratulations to you both, and get some sleep.”
“Congratulations on number two. Spare a thought for the first one, who is about to discover they are no longer the entire point of everything. Delighted for all of you.”
