Hey folks. I know some of you are shocked to see a post this soon after the last one. Don't get used to it.
It has been a high and low week here at the Robison house. Micah has started this no leg forward wiggling movement thing ( I would call it crawling but it doesn't look like crawling to me). Also his first tooth popped out. That little bugger is sharp! His snot fountain has eased up and he seems to be sleeping better. So all is good on the Micah front. He is fat and happy.
Yesterday was Kathy's 27th birthday. I took the day off of work. I was afraid I would cause to many 9 and 10 year old students to cry. That night some family and friends gather and we brought out "the box". "The box" is a 1 foot by 1 1/2 foot by 2 foot wooden box that I keep important memories of Kathy. It has old report cards, wedding pictures, and jewelry. It also contains all the sappy notes and cards I have given Kathy through the years. I am a hopeless romantic with extra time and creativity. Some of my friends got a real kick out of those. I am afraid that a few of my friends may get in trouble for not doing the same for their wives. (Sorry Tim and Andrew)
It has been almost 7 1/2 months since Kathy passed away. She would have liked the birthday party we had for her. Although a few of the pictures I passed around would have gotten me in trouble. (Kathy went through a big glasses phase, I mean almost her whole face was cover by glasses)
I am going to leave you know with this. Look at the person you love and remember why yo love them. I am going to go a step further and have you tell them why. It is always good to hear why someone loves you. I love you all because you take the time to listen to my life. Love, Laugh, Learn, Live

Nathan I know that this has been the hardest 7 1/2 months that you have ever lived in roles that you never thought you'd be in at that - a widower and a single father. You have had more prayers from people that you know and don't know begging for God's blessings and well-being for you and Micah. You are loved and cared about by many many people. Kathy truly gave you the best gift of all - Micah. Enjoy him because he will be walking and talking before you know it.
Love and prayers,
Heather
Wow, I didn't realize her birthday was this week. I can only imagine how hard that day was for you. Your strength and faith are incredible, and I continue to lift you all up as the holidays approach. You have been on my heart a lot lately with all the Thanksgiving and Christmas preparations going on around us. I pray you find joy, comfort and peace in the arms of Jesus this season.
