More about Robin:"I am a 53 year old christian Mother of 1, Mom of 6, and Nana of 8. I love my God and ALL of my children and grandchildren with ALL my heart and soul.
I am a single, biological Mother of 1 son - Joshua - Age 29. Joshua is married to a wonderful woman named Valerie and the 2 of them and my grandbabies, Jacob & Sydnee, live in Dundalk. They also have my grand puppy Ghost. I helped to raise my life partnerâs 3 children - Chris, Maggie and Becky, who are now grown adults AND I am currently raising my nephew Dominick who is 11 and my grandson Corey who is 4! I stay very busy with my boys - who have a better social life than I have ever had! I also helped to raise my niece/Goddaughter Nicole who is 28 years old and CHOOSES to call me her Mom. Hopefully one day, Niki will be free to join our family full time. I have a total of 8 wonderful children who call me their Nana: Al...Expand for more
aina - 9, Kayli - 9, Makayla - 5, Jacob - 5, Corey - 4, Sydnee - 2, Kiera - 6 months old and Shaun who is spending his 10th year in heaven with Jesus and His angels.
I worked for C&P Telephone/Bell Atlantic/Verizon for 32 years. I have lived in Essex, most of my adult life.
I was raised as an only child by Sidney and Mabel Fortner - they adopted me when I was 8 days old! No one could have asked for better parents. I miss both of them more and more every day. You never know or understand the love and support you have, until it is no longer there. I would give anything I have to have them back with me and be able to tell them how much I love them and how thankful I am for them choosing me.
I also met my biological mother when I was 21 - Joyce Elizabeth Swartz- Cuffley-Schmuff. By meeting her, a whole new life was opened up to me - a life that included 2 brothers and I was told, 2 sisters. Facebook has helped me finally connect with my 2 biological sisters - Margie and Shelly. I feel very blessed to have the opportunity to get to know them. My biological father was already deceased when I was made aware of my adoption. I also met both of my brothers; unfortunately, the relationship with my brothers did not last. My older brother Michael is living a life of drugs and crime in Missouri. My younger brother Bunky, who lives in Pasadena, Maryland, has chosen to not have a relationship with me. I wish he would reconsider, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen.".
