Whatever happened to Roww?

Roww was accidentally left behind in Canada. I called the hotel we stayed at in the Yukon and fortunately, Roww was still there! I gave the desk clerk our forwarding address and thanked her profusely for holding on to Roww for us. Once we got to Grandma and Grandpa Jordan's house, I guess I was expecting Roww to be waiting on us. Little did I know there was a mail strike in Canada. After several weeks passed and still no Roww, I decided to call back.

I left a message with the hotel and several hours later we got a phone call. The desk clerk who took our address down the first time, misplaced it. They had been waiting for us to call back. Grandpa Jordan gave them our address and a few short weeks later we got a package in the mail.

Sean and I knew what was in the package, but Autumn had no idea.

Is it a coffee pot mom? No Autumn, you have to open it.

Autumn exclaims "Roww was in the mail mom!"

Just so you know how important Roww is to Autumn, I've decided to include some pictures of Autumn, growing up with Roww (this post is going to make me cry). You will soon see that Roww has been around for every major event in Autumn's life.

I just have to say a big thank you goes out to the Yukon Motel in Canada for reuniting Autumn and Roww! Without you, we couldn't have this:
