Baby annoucement booboo

As part of the Employee Welfare Committee in our company, I am assigned to send out Baby Annoucements. Every now and then, when employees send us pictures of their new born baby, I basically create an email indicating the fullname, nickname, birthdate and parents of the said baby to everyone.

The thing is my boss' wife recently gave birth and to my excitement I immediately sent out an email of his baby's photo. However, I have one pending baby photo beforehand and noted to send it out next. As expected, the mother of the said baby reacted, cc'd my group, as follows:

I wonder when you will ever announce my baby. Actually, I didn't want to but J insisted that I give a photo. So I did but nothing has happened. Anyway, if you don't feel like it, never mind.

Ms. L


Admittedly the photo was sent to me last July 25 but hadn't gotten around to do the layout. Let's just say I wasn't that inspired to do so. I received phone calls asking me if i've read the mail while i am getting irate by the minute. Anyways, I didn't offer her any excuse, whipped and sent the layout in matter of minutes then sent a separate mail deeply apologising for the late announcement. It doesn't end there though, she emailed me the correct spelling of her daughter's mail. You see, I just used whatever info J previously gave to me. Now, I don't really want to clog everybody's mail but for her satisfaction, our chairperson decided that I resend the mail with the correct name.

What a way to start my day.

anyway, here's the simple LO i did for her.



Oftentimes, I get a few praises here and there and that more than makes up for the effort i put on these annoucement alongside my current workload.
