RICHARD EMILE ALEXANDRE LYALL (R.E.A.L.!)

born 25 FEBRUARY 2006

IN "THE BIRTH CENTER"

AT MAD RIVER HOSPITAL, ARCATA CA.

...to be called ALEX, or maybe EMILE (tho emile lyall is too many "L"s together i think). the names are his grandfathers' names: david & my father john richard lyall went by "richard" when he was growing up, and lucienne alexandre's father was emile.
