The Natalist Diaries
For a plain, hard-working man the home is not the one tame place in the world of adventure. It is the one wild place in the world of rules and set tasks. --G.K. Chesterton

Happy Fother's Day
Below is a scan of the "Fother's Day" card Francesca gave to my grandfather (her Grand Pepere). How would you like to get a card like this one?
Everybody (except my grandfather and Francesca) thought this was hilarious.
Poor girl, she was just trying to be sweet.

Olivia Publishes Her first Book
The title of Olivia's new book is Sophia and Joseph Get a Whole Can, but Olivia Gets a Half Cup by Olivia Drapeau.
I think it's brilliant.

Gemma's Birthday
Here is what we're doing about overpopulation.
Once again, my wife has borne me the world's most beautiful daughter.
Gemma Noelle Drapeau came into the world at 8:25 PM, December 10, 2009. She weighed 7 lbs, 6 oz and was 18" long. She is fantastico.
We named her after St. Gemma Galgani.

Joseph's First Communion
Joseph was confirmed and received his first communion (at 6:33 PM) on Sunday, April 19, 2009, Divine Mercy Sunday. He was confirmed by Bishop Thomas Olmsted at St. Thomas the Apostle parish. The reading was the one about Doubting Thomas touching the wounds of Christ.
Blessed is the one (like our Joseph) who has not seen yet still believes. The image below by Caravaggio is amazing.
