Dear Sarah,
Thank you so much for taking the time to come to my baby shower! I really love the pram that you bought for baby Elyse. I can’t wait to take her for a jog in the park! It was great seeing you. We really need to organize a catch up with the girls. Too much time is passing in between our meetings.
Send my love to Michael and children. It was great seeing them. The kids are growing so fast!
Love,
Melanie.
