    Welcome to a new member of the family, my cousin's new son, Nathaniel Edward!  His big brother looks really happy!  Nathaniel is a wonderful name - the disciple that Jesus saw meditating under a tree before Nathaniel ever met Him.  Jesus has certainly seen this little fellow as well, and already has a plan for his life.  God's blessings on him!

    And here is a story from the past about Nathaniel's Grandpa from the 1946 Schenectady Gazette!  Thanks for the tip, Uncle Gene!

    Members of the Central Park Middle School Bicycle Patrol were belted up and ready for action during the spring of 1946. The teenagers regulated movements of the school’s 300 two-wheel commuters. Kneeling in the first row, from left, are Carl Garb, William Talbot, Harold Tibbitts and William Stoddard. Standing in the back row are Harold DeReamer, Richard Mattice, Harry Simpson of the school faculty, George Spaulding and James Broomhall. Gazette file photos.

    Lessee if I can zoom a bit...

    I remember the bigger kids sporting these impressive badges from my elementary school days while a student attending Brandywine Elementary School that burned down a couple years ago.

  • somehow  it seems that "nate's" name got twisted.  His name is Nathaniel Edward.  He weighed in at 9lbs and 5 oz.  He was 22 inches long.  I understand that his mother has brothers that are 6'4'' and beyond.  He has a good start and his brother Billy is very pleased to have this addition to the family.

  • @Gramcface - Nathaniel Edward??  That is even better.  Who picked the name?  They did a great job!  I will fix the entry.
