August 4, 2013. Western Head, N.S. Happenings.

My granddaughter Sarah attends an Episcopal School in San Antonio.   The tenth grade students are invited to attend a Happenings, a weekend to concentrate on living a Christ centered life.     Part of the weekend is for the student to receive letters from relatives and friends, who have been asked to send a letter of encouragement to the student, all of which will be a surprise to the student.   I will be interested to hear about the weekend.

Sarah is 15 and she lives in San Antonio, Texas, but the Dickie side of the family hailed from Canada.   Whether she knows it or not, Sarah has a long line of righteous relatives who are ladies cheering her from Heaven.   Both the Buckley and Dickie ladies took their role in life seriously.    There was nothing frivolous  about her grandmother or great grandmothers or great great grandmothers.   Perhaps it is genetic, this business of making your mark in life and taking your role seriously.    I hope Sarah understands how much we wish her well.   We love her dearly and I hope the Happenings was a happy productive weekend for her.
