Frequently asked questions
How personal should a grandparent's or godparent's message be?
As personal as it feels natural to be — this is one of the few pages where warmth can run deeper than usual, since the relationship itself is so close.
Is it okay to write directly to the baby instead of the parents?
Yes, and it's often the most meaningful choice for a grandparent or godparent — a message "to" the child becomes something they can read again themselves one day.
