Our children and Bob and Heather's children grew up together. Sean and Alek were born the same year and Lauren and Ali 2 years later. We also have an older son Keane. I was a stay at home mom and Bob a stay at home dad. ( a real trend setter in his time)  Bob and I would do lots of excusions together with the kids. Bronte Creek play barn and activity centre being the destination of choice. The play barn has a second level that you could jump into a pit of foam from. Alek remembers Bob coaxing him to jump from this great height and when he finally got up the courage to jump Bob just reached out and grabbed him mid air.  Our kids love hanging with the O"Connors. People would look at Bob and I with our group of 5 close in age kids and say, "You really have your hands full!" We would just shake our heads in acknowledgement and carry on.  Thank you from all of us Bob, for the great childhood memories our kids have growing up with you and the fabulous companion I had to share these times with.
