"Welcome baby (name), hope you enjoy this book as much as (LO) does." Short and sweet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-write-in-books-you-give-as-gifts#post-2332859 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 08:39:32 +0000 twodoghouse 2332859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mfa_lady: Oh that's a good idea. DS loves this book because of the balloons on the cover. Maybe I'll write about baby enjoying the book as much as we do. Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-write-in-books-you-give-as-gifts#post-2332858 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 08:27:39 +0000 mfa_lady 2332858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually "inscribe" books I give to babies/kids from our family, but I've never been asked specifically for a message! I usually just put the date, and happy birthday/merry Christmas/etc. For a baby shower, maybe "Welcome to the world!" would be cute, or, something about the story if it's a meaningful/favorite one for you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-write-in-books-you-give-as-gifts#post-2332856 Sun, 25 Oct 2015 08:22:47 +0000 twodoghouse 2332856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to a baby shower later today and the invite asked everyone to bring a book with a message for baby written inside. I have no idea what to write! Do you have a go-to message for this situation? </p>
