Roy's Way Of Life Is Mine
"Roy knows how completely he hos altered my life/' says the happy mother of Roy Rogers' four children
By Dale Evans
I THINK any mother who has a baby daughter today will have a lot to tell her husband. Certainly I have talked to Boy at length about Robin. She's bound to have an effect on her parents and on the other children in our home. I expect all of us will have a decided effect on her!
There are so many things Roy and I want for her. Luckily for me, he's the type who is as concerned about all that can happen to our family as I am.
He thought he wanted a boy until he saw Robin. Dusty, with two sisters already shouldn't have to grow up in a household full of women! I hope he won't have to, either. But right now I can't deny I'm glad we've had a girl. Somehow a girl always remains closer to a mother. A boy matures and marries and takes his place as head of a new family. I don't intend to hang onto Bobin. But, someday, we'll be women together and when we can just be friends we'll have so much in common. That is, if I'm as wise as my own mother has been!
Boy and I decided on Bobin Elizabeth's name when we were celebrating our second wedding anniversary. We chanced to be dining in a fascinating Chinese cafe in San Francisco. A very pretty little Chinese girl sang. Her name, we discovered, was Bobin Wing. Immediately Bobin struck me as such a happy name. It reminds me of Spring, my favorite time of the year. The Elizabeth is in memory of my mother and my great grandmother. It's important to hand down family names, I told Boy that evening. Just as it was important for me to dig out the bassinet Cheryl, Linda, and Dusty all had used. I decorated it myself, and played safe by adorning it with an equal amount of pink and blue ribbon.
She loves working with Roy, but doesn't want to leave the children too often.
