Roger's Page
Birth - 12 yrs

WROTE BY HIS MOTHER

Roger is the youngest of three children and will always be my baby.
His father almost missed his birth due to him thinking that all kids take a long time to enter into this world... (plus I also didnt have any contractions thru labor with him...and this was only his Father's second time around so he just figured all births were alike)
Now you have to remember this is Mom trying to give birth to Roger 11 months after his sister was born so it kinda unusal all the way around.
When we went in for my dr. visit and they said I was at a 9- His father dropped me off at the hospital and went home to load the wood boiler, pick up my sister to watch thee other children at home while I was in the hospital,  did other odds and ends and even stopped to eat at Mcdonalds before coming back to the hospital. He naturally figured it was going to be a long stay once more before he was able to actual see his son being born. I remember lying in the labor room thinking that he had better hurry up because this one was gonna be quick but I also knew it was wintertime outside and he had to make sure our other children were set at home for the day while we were at the hospital.
Thank God he did manage to make it back to the hospital just in time to cut the cord...(he missed all the yellin and screamin I had planned for him tho :)
 
His name his father picked out for him after some football hero .
His godparents are one of his uncles on his mothers side who is one of his Dad's friend also {ie: as to how Roger's parents met} and gets to see them all the time.
HIS FAMILY
 
Roger's Father and I were never married but did live together in the same home for 9 years which I will always treasure forever. Thank You Dave (Dad) for always being here for your children even if we are not living together etc... anymore. We both beleive that it is not the child who should suffer if the parents cannot continue to live together.

Roger has lots of family around him due to the fact that his mother
has 12 brothers and sisters and they all live nearby. His fathers parents and sister and her family live in GA  so he doesn't get to see then that often....but now 12 years later they do get ot chit chat occasionally on the internet and thru phone calls etc...



He has a older brother by 9 yrs Robert that he fights with constantly but boys will be boys and I do know that they will protect each other thru thick and thin.

His older sister Miranda is 11 months older and therefore makes him the same age as her for three weeks... so for three weeks they cannot boss each other around.

He visits his Father every weekend and loves being at the homeplace in the country and outside with his 2 half brothers and helping his Dad work on cars, cut wood, raise rabbits or whatever they may be doing together.

 
HIS PERSONALITY ETC...

Roger loves to be outdoors. Point blank. In the middle of winter you will find him outside shoveling walks and sledding. In the summer when there is no school he is up at the crack of dawn and still outside way past dark.
He also likes to play most sports and to be challenged constantly. 1998-99 he was on a local Hockey Team. He also has tried Cub Scouts in 1999 and did go on a few adventures etc... til the program fell apart here in this small central Mn hometown.          
He is built like a brick shit house (as my father would say) and should be playing football and on wrestling team but he needs to get his grades up to par first...He has a habit of doing it and not turning in his homework...Like the school principle said...It's kinda like your mom going ot work and punchin a time clokc and then at the end of the week decide not to turn in the hours for pay.
He collects Matchbox LOGO vehicles and anything thst has to do with fishing.
He isn't into much reading, watching TV or sitting idle too long... he needs to be constantly doing something constructive and would rather be outside tinkering on his 4-wheeler, go-cart, building a tree fort or fishing than be inside the house.


As far as accidents he has had a few but the one I remember most is when he smashed his fingers between two rocks at age 6 and I discovered I cant stand the sight of blood. Thank God his father showed up at the hospital to help him thru it and ME!
