311

HOBL and I are finished nesting...

You can come out now Jillian...

I cannot ever have the date of 311 pass

without thinking of Robert.

He and Baby boy loved the band 311

before they were ever as popular as they are now.

Rob was the man with the music even

way back when he was in the third grade.

I do not know when 311 put their band together

but Rob knew and loved them before they

knew they would be famous and as BB

said in a song he wrote about Rob years ago,

"My love from music came from yours"

Yes, bb and Robert danced and sang around my living room

more than a dozen times to the music of 311.

It was not surprising that at Robert's funeral 311

was played and when 311 toured the same year on the date

of 311 they dedicated a song to our Robert.

So wouldn't it be the best gift, the laugh of Robert

from a land none of us have seen to have one of

his best buds from childhood have a hand in little

Jillian being born today.

on 3/11/11

coming only once in a lifetime.

No pressure dear Rob, no pressure

but I do believe BB would think of you if this

baby came to be born on this most magnificent day.

I won't hold it against you dear Rob if Jillian refuses

to be born today, she tends to have a mind of her own.

However, if you have any pull with this innocent child

and the Big Man upstairs, we will take it.

Thinking of you often and especially this day my love.
