There was some of it magic, some of it tragic, but he had a good life all the way.

For Mother's Day we went to Disney World. That was an accident. But it actually turned out to be a really good one. Throughout the flight when the boys (any of the three) would act up, I could just say "Mother's Day!!" and it would actually work! After we got there we went to the pool and swam for a long time, then had a late dinner. While we were in the food court area, the 'ambience' music started playing 'He Went to Paris'. Can you believe it? It was the Jimmy Buffett version, but still. (We were at the Caribbean Beach resort). Being at Disney World brought back lots of good memories - that night we got to see the fireworks as we walked back to our room. When we went on Pirates of the Caribbean, I made sure to look out for the one who looks like Uncle George. We rode Winnie the Pooh and in my mind Robert was getting us through. It was awesome seeing it all again through the eyes of my little boys. I think Dad would be proud. I can't believe it's been three years.

p.s. We missed Country Bear Jamboree; we'll save that for next time... but how could I forget Splash Mountain with Brer Bear and Brer Fox, and the frogs, and also too Mike Fink's Riverboats!
