  7. And me, my grandson is three years old and my granddaughter is six months old. Some of my friends my age have grandchildren already going to school, but thank God, better late than never. Greetings from Croatia.

  12. Congratulations! Although I've never met you, I've long pictured you as being too young to be a grandfather. Now I need to give my own kids a kick in the rear...

  14. Congratulations to you and Rachel from Eileen and me! Please provide details. If it was a biblical birth report, it would read something like:
    "And Gemma conceived and bore a son, and named him Timothy, saying "This boy will surely fear God."

  20. I remember reading about Gemma getting married, so I'm guessing she's the mom. I wish you all the best.

    Congratulations on becoming a grandfather! (Sorry that I don't have much else to post here. There was some error preventing my post from being published earlier...)

  22. Congratulations, Ed!!!!!

    I bet you can't wait for her to grow up enough so you can teach her about Aristotle and Aquinas — or to ask her about Zeno's paradox!

    Btw, how does it feel to have the grandpa potency to be finally actualized?

  23. Congratulations, and thanks to God for this blessing to the Feser family. Many a time I've been blessed to bear that facial expression you have and, I think, have felt what you're feeling in that photo.

  26. Congrats Prof!

    The gift of new life always renews one's vigour and hope. To quote a famous character, it reminds us that there is good in this world and it's worth fighting for.

    Congratulations Prof.

    I am sure you will make a grandfather.

  28. CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE ONCE AGAIN ON THE PRECIPICE OF TOLERANCE! :) tolerance is an ethical concept which must have criteria governing its appropriate application. The Catholic Stand has an interesting article on the latter, not, necessarily, the interface of grandparenthood. Have a beautiful fun holding that bundle of joy!

  35. Congratulations! Will you start teaching her about the 5 ways when she is little or are you going to be patients and wait till she is 6 years old or something 😅

  38. I doff an aged, tattered, but most respectful hat; all my rosiest congratulations from here in Oxford! Hope mother and baby girl are doing splendidly!

  39. I was just discussing with my room mate today, I tend to share a lot of Prof's post, so my roomate remarked, he is just so intellectually gifted, he could have easily chased power all his life.

    But he chose what matters the most in this world , Faith and Family.

    And that is why I make sure to share his thoughts with people and give him credit.
