carolyn roberson

she was my momma
she was my sister
she was my best friend
she was my aunt
she was my leader
she was my teacher
she was my role model
she was my hero
she was my right hand
i have so many memories with her wish i could wright every memory down to share with the world. i remember cody an i walking her up the hill at night then leaving and us both crying,worrying abut her passing also so sad cause she was home alone. every storm we had i would worrier sick about her being home alone and scared! she was never scared of anything and she lived years after us worrying about her passing! we cryed for nothing she was a strong outspoken woman who was in a well chair but could get around better then most people that could walk.her only fear was a bird...yes a bird (well anything that could fly) will never forget the time down at the store a bird flew in she backed her well chair into the bathroom so fast and closed the door.didn't open it until us kids got the bird out the store for her. will never forget out creek kids annual camp out we played fear factor and a tone of games staying out late and camping. a normal day for me when she was alive would be get up get dressed and go to the creek stay all day helping her with chores playing cards (phase10) playing games on her computer talking about her life my life her past and my future. late night talks and taking her home up the hill and leaving so sad hated being away from her. would get up and do it all over again.she was the grandma to all the kids in the neighborhood from generating to generation we were all raised at the creek. its a honor to call myself a creek kid. that muddy water is were i learned to swim. remember it like yesterday (if you couldn't swim all the way across the creek and back then you could not swim with out a adult watching you) i remember the day i set my goal and passed it like the big boys i swam all the way across and back :) i caught my first fish in that water was to scared to touch it so i would swing my fishing pole back and forth  un till the fish would fly off. when i was about 2 years old i was leaning over the fish pond looking at the fish and i fell in head first feet flew up and chewing gum flew out into the water, earl carolyns brother saved me lifted  me up i reached into the water grabbed my gum and put it right back in my mouth.i was raised there and my life growing up was wonderful any body who had Carolyn in there life knows where I'm coming from. i was a sassy child growing up. i remember on afternoon she was helping with my home work and i said something smart and threw my head down on my books, she grabbed my hair and started preaching! i didn't do that no more.she would help me with all my projects,she was so creative and smart. on one of my birthdays i got off the bus at the creek (everyday i got off the bus at the creek) and she had cupcakes, chips,and ice cream. it was a small gift from her that meant the most. my 16 birthday she gave me a real pair of diamond earrings the belong to her when she was a teen,best gift ever. two years later i lost one down the bath tub drain,still so sad about that, got my other one in the safe, i wont loose that one. i think about Carolyn all the time i really believe that one day we will meet again and it will be just like old times. a couple of months after she passes she came to me in my dream telling me everything was find she was in no pain and she could walk again and my grandma Sybil in heaven was OK. after that dream i felt so relieved and pleased.that was the best dream i have ever had her spirt came to me! amazing i look up at the sky and smile knowing she is smiling back at me. she is deep in my heart for ever and ever...love you carolyn!
