I don't know if you're taking any to CHOP (It's kind of out of the way, so I assume you probably aren't), but if you are, it'd be nice if my cards went there since I work there and see a part (the blood) of a lot of the NICU patients. That wasn't meant to be gruesome at all, just my job. ;-)Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11941005565718429152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3085597284217459353.post-46642732828116987512010-11-23T09:05:49.492-05:002010-11-23T09:05:49.492-05:00We're going to take them over Christmas mornin...We're going to take them over Christmas morning, but I'd like to have all the cards and everything by the 20th of December.

Avoid statements like your baby will be home before you know it. Thank you for wanting to watch out for us NICU moms/ graduates :) It means a lot!Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01204518035543132517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3085597284217459353.post-18945604341431824152010-11-22T19:48:37.072-05:002010-11-22T19:48:37.072-05:00Delina- That would be awesome!

Since I can't comment on the specific situation of each family, I'd just say something to the effect of, "Just wanted you to know that there are people thinking about you and your little one during your time in the NICU. We are wishing you the best for this Holiday Season." Something like that. It doesn't have to be anything big, just a note, letting people know that others are thinking of them.
