I am that little robin, that sits upon the tree,

I sing to you each morning, but you don’t know it’s me.

I am that little robin, in the garden every day,

I will never leave you, I will never fly away.

We’re absolutely heartbroken, but know you will be with us forever.

Lots of love, Angela, Jo and Chris XXXX.
