Remember the rats?  And how about the time you shot a mouse up in one of your rockets and the landing killed it?

One year you gave me a lump of coal for Christmas.  You thought it was funny until Mama made you make me a bracelet out of the bead set you got!  Now that's funny!

When we moved from Atlanta to Tampa, we gave you a car.  It broke down on Buford Hwy.  You called us, 9 hrs drive away, and asked us what we were going to do with it!

Said Christmas Party...another year.   We got a new camcorder for Christmas.  YOu spent the whole party taping ET on the TV.  Nuff said.

One time, you made a wood carving of alien space ships shooting at Earth.  You gave it to me and I hope I have it still. 

I loved it.
 

Every year, we would have a big family and friends Christmas Eve party.   We took a pic of you with our new Poloroid camera which you were dieing for us to try.  Unfortunately, behind you were all the "Santa" presents.   

The next day, Amanda saw the photo.   That night, she started crying.  She told me she knew there was no Santa because he couldn't have come before you left!


And the Easter Bunny too!


Love, you Robert!  You're curiousity about technology didn't kill the cat but it killed Santa for Amanda!
