Birth Announcement

WING - Andrew is happy to announce that he is finally a big brother! Matthew Joseph James came out to play on Friday, July 2, 2004 at 2:45 pm. Matthew is the second child for Mommy (Lisa) and Daddy (Graham), the fourth grandchild for Gramma (Eleanor) and Grampa (Mike) Rowland, the fifth grandchild for Nanna (Marsha) and Poppa (Brian) Wing, and the fourteenth great-grandchild for Nanny. Matthew will also have fun playing with his six aunts, two uncles, and five cousins. May God bless Dr. Viljoen, Terry, Jane, and the other nurses at the St. Catharines General Hospital for their kindness and caring.

Below is the birth announcement as seen in the St. Catharines Standard. With Andrew we miscounted the Aunts, and I found out that with Matthew I miscounted Nanny's great-grandchildren. Kevin Wing has a daughter, Holly, who was born after Lauren. So it should say ."... and the fifteenth great-grandchild for Nanny."
