House of cards


Dear little Milo

You are so lovable, and it's clear to see from the string of cards hanging up in our dining room!

We sent out a lot of the birth announcement cards, and received quite a lot of well wishes from our friends and family all over the world.

You are bound to have many friends wherever you go, and hopefully we've made a good start on your behalf.

We even got special messages from your great Uncle on your Opa's side and messages from your great Uncle on your Pop's side too. Yay for Facebook!

It may not be the last of the cards; I hope the string stays up and doesn't get tooooo heavy under the weight of so many beautiful missives!

Message from Renny enclosed in his card to us - he's my osteopath - this is so beautiful.

Hello Jane and Edwin and Milo


Warmest congratulations on your firstborn - a son Milo!! Milo means "gentle-beautiful-friendly-well formed" and in Greek "protector". A beautiful, powerful name for this new citizen of the world. The most important change in your lives: your first child. I wish you all the happiness and health, togetherness and unconditional-ness! Warm greetings, Renny de Bruyn.
