FLOWER MOUND, Texas (AP) _ A woman fatally shot her husband and two children, apparently as they slept, before killing herself, police said.

Andrea Roberts, 41, killed her husband, Michael Lewis Roberts, 41, and children, Micayla, 11, and Dylan, 7, Officer Steven Caldwell said. Each had a single gunshot wound to the head.

Detectives are reviewing a suicide note left in the house in Flower Mound, about 30 miles northwest of Dallas, police Lt. Wendell Mitchell said.

Officers responded to a domestic dispute call at the home in January after the couple had a disagreement. There were no injuries or arrests, Mitchell said.

On Tuesday, their bodies were found when a neighbor checked on them in the morning at the request of Michael Roberts' employer after he missed a business meeting, Caldwell said.

By Tuesday evening, neighbors had left flowers and signs on the front porch of the red brick home. One sign read, ``We love you Roberts family.''

Neighbor Neal Walker remembered the children.

``Dylan has ridden his bike and his scooter up and down my driveway a thousand times,'' he said. ``We're just devastated that this happened.''
