Lost City of Atlantis: Adding Children to the Family

It's been far too long since we checked in with Foots and his Lost City of Atlantis project. Thankfully, this weekend, he emailed me some photos of the first child of Cayman's Lost City. If you're wondering why children need to be included in this project, bear in mind that no community can grow if it doesn't have children within it -- even if that community is made of molded concrete.

The "real-world" child honored as the first to take a place in Atlantis is Joseph Musumeci, III, the grandson of Joseph Musumeci, Sr. (pictured).

Joseph Musumeci, Sr. is a long-time resident of the Brac and the retired two time mayor of Swedesboro, New Jersey.

However, what I really want to know is: Why was this child honored as the first child of Atlantis? Does he have great grades? Is he especially polite? Was his room the cleanest? Foots, please help me out!

UPDATE FROM THE MOTHER OF THE FIRST CHILD OF ATLANTIS...SERIOUSLY:

The first child of Atlantis is nine years old and lives in Centreville, Delaware. He has a genuine concern for his family and people around him; he is especially polite and a very kind-hearted child. He is an average to above student. His room is very clean because he chooses to spend most of his time with his family. When asked, "How does it feel to be the first honored child of Atlantis?" his reply is simple and sweet. "It's so cool! I get to be in Cayman Brac everyday, and will be with my Grandfather forever..."
