They added, "If it's occasionally noisy early in the morning or late at night, we would be very grateful for your understanding and patience. And we apologize in advance. We know we should greet each of you personally, but we hope you understand that we cannot." The couple concluded, "We will raise our child with love, wisdom, and care. We wish you health and happiness always. Thank you."
