Re: book wishing well wording?

something like these??

A tisket, a tasket,
something small for baby's basket!
From the top of his head,
to the tip of his toes,
baby products are needed,
every mom knows.
Shampoo and booties
and for inbetween,
wet-wipes and q-tips,
to keep baby clean.
If you could provide an item like these,
Our Mom-to-be and baby sure would be pleased.



A* Anbesol B* Bibs C* Clothes Pins

A shopping spree from A-Z
To add a little extra glee
And help the baby and mom-to-be
Please bring a little extra
from your heart
to help them fill the
alphabet shopping cart

**Thanks for helping fill the shopping cart!





Diapers, bottles, clothes galore,
we have some but still need more.
If you could pitch-in to help with these,
Mommy and baby sure would be pleased.
With your donation, your name please don't tell,
it's just a little contribution to our wishing well.



Baby wipes, teething rings, diapers galore,
onesies, bibs, books, blankets, binkies and more.
If each guest would bring just one of these
Our new mommy and baby would surely be pleased.
No need to wrap it, your name don't tell,
She'll find the essentials in her Wishing Well!!

Re: book wishing well wording?

i think i read that wrong how about these.....




Bring a Book

As (Mother-to-be's name) due date is coming near,
We're inviting friends and family dear.
To choose a favorite story or fairy tale
That you would like Baby ________ to hear.
Instead of a card, please let (mother-to-be's name)look,
At your special choice of a book,
and then to Baby _________ she will read
With all the love a newborn will need.
So with a personal touch, please choose a book
And in it then your name do put.
It need not cost more than a card
Just pick a favorite, it shouldn't be hard.
author unknown

I want to be a bright child
As smart as I can be.
That is why I'm hoping
My mom will read to me.
If you plan to bring a card
Please take another look,
I would like to learn my ABC's
From your favorite storybook.
Please sign your name
As your personal touch.
Baby ________ thanks you
Beary, beary much.

Or replace the last paragraph with the following:

Please add your name and a note
Then I'll know you've done your part.
Some day I'll surely thank you
From the bottom of my heart.
~ author unknown ~

Although cards are nice
They're read once or twice
Maybe three or four times at best
A book is a treasure
Forever and Forever
So instead of a card
To be put aside
Please give the little baby
A book with your name inside
It will be read to our little tyke
Before bed each night
And we will thank you
Forever and Forever!
~ submitted by Erin, Thanks! ~

A card is nice, its sentiment sweet,
But a book will keep baby on her feet.
For years to come, baby will read
Longing for stories will never be a need.
A shelf full of wisdom for all to give,
For baby to keep as long as she shall live.
Filling the shelf should not be hard,
If you would please sign a book instead of a card.

The saying we put on my invites for the book wishing well was:

Baby's first book, what will it be?
Bring you favorite to add to her library!

or something like that.
