Nathaniel Charles Irvine
b. 1/10/2006
Born in Atlanta, Georgia

Nathan was born with the name of Nathaniel Charles Irvine on January 10, 2006. Contrary to the last name his mother gave him at birth, "Frew," he will never be known in the Irvine family as "Frew." So Nathan Irvine, will forever be an IRVINE !!

A note to Nathan: (7 April 2006)
Son, you will not understand this until far later in life, but your mother and I did not get along in life, love or in marriage. We separated soon after finding out that you were coming into this world. We separated July 7, 2005, at which time your mother abandoned our home in Biloxi, MS to seek a different life in Atlanta, GA away from the military. She never accepted the military life that I was providing as an active duty enlisted Air Force member of 15+ years. You will learn later in life that the military is an honorable way of life; one where you are able to serve your country and defend freedom for the United States.

You came into this world on January 10, 2006 at Northside Hospital in Atlanta, GA. You were born at 5:04 pm, 7 lbs. 1 oz. and 20-3/4 inches. A beautiful baby boy! Although I have not been allowed to meet you, (as of 7 April 2006), you are loved deeply by me, your Grand parents; Gran & Pop, your Aunt Kate, Uncle Sam & Aunt Sarah and your cousins. We will soon be allowed to meet you and shower you with love. I count the seconds until that day.

Son, I was not allowed to see you at birth, in fact, I've also been prevented from meeting you, holding you, or even giving you a kiss. Learn early to stand up for yourself and not be railroaded into submission. Stand up for your beliefs, no matter how someone else will take them; they are your beliefs and all others should respect that at all times. You lose when cannot be your own person and when people try to take that away from you. You will have a strong back bone given to you proudly from the Irvine side of your family.
I have only been able to see pictures of you from birth ... you are a beautiful boy! You are MY boy! I love you with all of my heart.

I love you,

Your Father, your Dad.

Dear Son,
It will certainly not be long now before I can hold you in my arms. Today, was a momentous day! I feel that all will soon be well in life and love. I cannot wait to shower you with my Love as your Father. You will understand one day, that today's court decision is a temporary one, I am longing for the day when we can be together as much as the Lord will allow. You are 7 mos, 2 wks old and You should not have to suffer through life for mistakes that others have made. Just know, My Dear Son, that my love will pour over you where ever you are.

Until I am able to gather my thoughts and write more .. I love you with all of my Heart.

Daddy
