– Congratulate your friend.

– Tell her when you will be returning home.

– Ask when you could drop in to meet her and the baby.

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Sarah,

I just heard the wonderful news—congratulations on the arrival of your baby! I’m so happy for you and your family. I can only imagine how exciting and emotional this time must be. I’m sure you’re already doing an amazing job as a mom.

I’m currently overseas for work, but the good news is that I’ll be flying back to our hometown next Tuesday, the 24th of April. I’ve been looking forward to seeing you, and now there’s even more reason to visit!

Once you and the baby are settled, I’d love to stop by for a short visit. Just let me know a day and time that works best for you. I completely understand if you’re still adjusting, so no pressure at all—I’ll come by whenever it’s convenient.

Can’t wait to meet your little one in person!

Warm wishes,

Emily
