This is Nathaniel
July 26th, 2006

Nathaniel’s dream is to get closer to God and to make sure his mom is happy.

Nathaniel is currently four years old and carrying wood with his two sisters down a dusty cart-road in an unmarked Amish village somewhere between Allegheny and Tionesta, Pennsylvania. In pauses between talking to me, he looks sideways at his older sisters, who peacefully nod towards him. I tell him that he looks big and strong and then I help him carry the wood to his parents’ home, where he lives with his other nine brothers and sisters.

    Hey Trey — he looks like he’s about to slug you. (Did he?)

    No… He was a nice kid. I think what you are seeing is general confusion, a look I am used to seeing in the mirror.
