Ok, so I had great intentions about doing a blog for Robin's 27th B-day this year. I spent the WHOLE day scanning in old photos...... in the end NONE..... NOT ONE was saved. It brought me to tears....losing the hard work on top of doing something so emotional! For Mary's Mother's day I did manage to scan in a few..... so I needed to share! And in honor of the Blog I did about Siblings on my site I included some GREAT brother & sister pictures:

She REALLY looked up to Dax.

It was so sweet to read her diary & see how much he meant to her!

Oh...and look she is holding Toby....probably just like now ;-)

This was Robin's 1st visit to my place in Clear Lake!

Schlitterbahn fun.....the three of us had a blast with the underwater camera that day!

Mary & her babies ;-)

Goofing off at a family reunion!

We Love Robin!

My friend Travis made this flower arrangement for Robin for Valentine's ...isn't it beautiful ...he's a really awesome guy... Mom ....Mary

Hey Mary/Dax,

"I know where Aunt Robin is....."

"HEAVEN!!!"

It always seems to be on the most beautiful days that Ollie remembers her. This statement popped out of his mouth while riding in the car today!

"I think that Aunt Robin is an Angel!"

I do too!

Screen Saver Photo

This picture popped up in my screen saver today! Just wanted to share.

I think it is from 1999 or early 2000!

A 4 year olds comments on death

Saturday was a beautiful sunny day here. In the afternoon, I went out to enjoy the day, peace n quite, and swing. My time was quickly interrupted by Dax and the baby. They decided to swing with me. I was getting tons of love from both of them. The baby sat in my lap and rested his head on my chest......... then it came out of his mouth... this is one of those moments that sting,


"I don't like dying!" he paused


so I asked, " what makes you think about that?"


"I don't like Aunt Robin being in Heaven and I can't see her!"


"I don't either, buddy........" Dax and I followed with all the reassuring points a father and mother can give.





The picture on the left is the first visit to meet him. The one on the right is the last time we saw her. I was always telling her I need to take a picture of how she had the magic touch with him. She would hold him and poof nap time started. On the day she was moving her stuff out she took the time to stop and cuddle with him.... well minutes later this was the picture. Something this day made me pick up the camera...... Thank God I did..... sweet memory!
