Remembering Robin

Today would have been my dear friend Robin's 40th birthday. She went home to be with Jesus nearly 12 years ago, but not a day goes by that I don't think about her and wish with all my heart that she could still be here. There are so many times that I think of something I wish I could share with her. Each joy and sorrow I face in life, I wish she could be there to celebrate or cry with me. I wish she could have met my girls and I wish my girls could have really known their "Auntie" Robin rather than just hearing stories about her. I find myself missing her more than usual today. I wish we could've shared our 40th birthdays together - we used to celebrate in between our actual birthdays since they were only 16 days apart. Happy birthday, Robin! I can't wait to celebrate with you in Heaven!

All ready for our Senior prom...just waiting for our dates. Could our hair be any bigger?
