Welcome to Beckett Blog
Since we are so loved and everyone wants to see pictures of our new son. We thought that giving Beckett his own blog would be a cool thing. Since emailing 20 pics is not logical and web sites take forever to set up.
Janelle and I would like to thank everyone for their visits, calls, gifts, and support. This has been a much easier experience than we had been led to believe, because of all your help. Except for that whole labor and delivery thing (for those of you who didn't know Janelle is tough).
"Where did you get that name?" I heard the name, I liked the name, I convinced Janelle she liked the name, we waited for a son, and named him Beckett.
A SHORT HISTPRY LESSON: Beckett is an English surname meaning calm or methodical. The two most famous Becketts are Samuel Beckett 20th Century Irish writer and Nobel Laureate (1969). Beckett's most famous work is the play, "Waiting for Godot". AND...
Saint Thomas Becket 11th century Arch Bishop of Canterbury, martyr, assassinated by followers of King Henry II. "Who will rid me of this meddlesome priest?"
I hope everyone enjoys the pictures of Beckett's first days. We will be around to visit you all, eventually. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. If you want to stop by just give us a call.
Peace and Love,
The N-G's
Janelle, Issac, Beckett and... Georgia- the dog
