No: Dear Mrs. Hollingsworth, I regret that I am unable to attend the baby shower you are hosting for my cousin Anna Heyworth on August 14, 2012. Our nephew graduates from college the same day, and we will be out of town attending the ceremony. I see from the invitation that Anna is registered at a local baby store. I will contact the store to select a gift and have it shipped to your home. I hope you won’t mind keeping it until the date of the baby shower. Thank you for the invitation. I hope you all have a wonderful time honoring Anna and her little bundle of joy. Sincerely, Carolyn Myers Yes: Dear Mrs. Hollingsworth, We have received and thank you for your invitation to attend Anna’s baby shower. We would be happy to attend! I also think your idea of creating a baby scrapbook for them is a truly wonderful one, and, as requested, I’ve included a few photos of Anna that I was able to locate. Thank you for inviting us to celebrate this special day with all of you. Sincerely, Kelly Peterson
