“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 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.”
“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 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.”
