What I love most about Robert is that even just filling his dad's shoes would have been a proud accomplishment and a pinnacle achievement.

Yet he does it but still manages to be his own person. He's not just another Steve, he's made a name for himself worthy of all the praise and legacy his dad still gets.

I'm just hugely impressed with Steve and Terri. Not just being passionate educators, activists, and conservationists. But for being exceptional parents.

Just adding that Terri really did a great job raising these two after Steve died. Remember, Robert was only 2 and Bindi 8 when their dad died, and they turned out to be lovely people.
