They Now Have An Offense...

My brother Charles and his wife Betty are the proud parents of their 11th child. Stephen Peter Bauer was born yesterday, weighing in at 9 lbs 1 oz. They can now officially field the offensive side of a football team.

Not only are the other 10 of their kids simply great kids, but the 11th's middle name is my first name. It took a LONG time to get this far. You see, I'm the last of seven kids. Charles and Betty named each of their boys with the middle names of each of Charles' brothers first names, in chronological order. Does that make sense? So, it took 11 kids for them to have enough boys so my name would be included in the mix.

I couldn't be happier for them. Welcome to the family, Stephen.
