It is now 11:30 on a beautiful Sunday morning. At this moment Suzanne, Abigail and Samantha are at the tennis courts just down the street. David, Ken and Allison earlier this morning made a trip to Home Depot, David to buy more plants and Allison, as she usually does, goes along for the company. Ken needed some parts for the power washer as he intends to clean up the front stoop and the back deck. Allison has stayed working along with David in the yard. Sarah is completing her home work up in her bedroom. In other words, all children are happy and productive as is the parents.
It is a wonderful time for the Family. Suzanne took the dog on a long walk first thing this morning while the girls stayed home, all while David and company were at the store. The girls have enough interests to amuse themselves or play together, mostly without getting into an argument. They all read well so often retreat to their books where silence reigns. Last night we all watched the Pittsburgh hockey game together, at least we did until bedtime ruled the roost. It was a lovely evening together.
There is no doubt about it. This is a lovely time in the life of the David Dickie Family, and I feel privileged to be a small part of it.

Sounds like I need to bring my tennis stuff to Nova Scotia.

David and Suzanne play a lot of tennis as does Abigail. The other three girls play some seasons and not others but they can all play. No doubt about it, it is time for a visit to Texas. Ruth.
