Joshua gets great start to new year
By Bill Rea

Lisa and Ezra Galati of Nobleton welcomed Joshua into the world at 12:31 a.m. New Year's Day.

Joshua Carmen Galati will have more than kisses to look forward to when he rings in a new year from now on.

He'll have his birthday to celebrate too.

Joshua wasted little time in 2007 adding to King's population, arriving in the world at 12:31 a.m. Jan. 1, the third son of Lisa and Ezra Galati of Nobleton.

He weighed in at seven pounds, 13 ounces. His big brothers are Sandro, 3, and Robert, 20 months.

Joshua was actually a little early, being expected Jan. 10, although his father thought he might be a little earlier than he was.

"We thought we were going to have a Christmas baby," he commented.

Despite his early arrival, his mother said every was fine and he's coming along normally, being awake all night and asleep all day.

"Normal kid," his father said.
