Our birth announcement cards arrived in the post today. I’ll be posting some of those through neighbours’s letterboxes tomorrow and sending the rest out in the post at the start of next week.
If I were designing a birth announcement card for my friends, I’d probably choose something with a geek element, such as the following bit of Ruby code:
family << Child.new( { :name => 'Lucas Alexander Caspar Matthijs',
:sex => 'Male',
:dob => DateTime.parse( '2008-03-31T13:31:00+02:00' ),
:weight => 3500 } )
Clear enough, right?
Sarah would never allow it, though: far too sensible and traditional. Oh well.
