A Family Event Revealed: A Special Day

Dear Reader:

So much happiness! Tommy and Kaitlyn have decided that May 6, 2017 will be their wedding day. It will be a small family wedding on the beach and I couldn’t be happier!

Even though we lost our little Rudy…as you can see he is still delivering the good news. The postal service outfit Rudy wore was one of his favorites so it worked out perfectly to use it to announce the joyful tidings of Tommy and Kaitlyn’s upcoming wedding… of which he was such a pivotal part.

Rudy, you might remember, delivered the ring to Kaitlyn – it was on his decorated collar. Rudy was so loved…by both Kaitlyn and Tommy that from the ‘get-go’ their union included Rudy…the Three Musketeers.

Tommy and Kaitlyn: Let me take a moment to tell both of you that I truly know this relationship was definitely an example of a God Wink and a promise to a mother…that love would come to her son and love arrived in the most beautiful package…inside and out…our dear Kaitlyn! Both of you understand the other at a deeper level than anyone else and see someone inside that is extraordinarily special. That, my loves, is love.

May 6 can not come soon enough…the Boo will be there will “belles on her toes” and “laughter and love in her heart.”

Kaitlyn, I love the bracelet you just sent your mom….you made Susan’s day for sure.

Susan’s reaction to the bracelet:

i got a silver box in the mail today which said it’s a gift for a special and important mother of the bride. just in case i ever forgot i was loved and the outside inscription says forever and always and inside it’s engraved remember i love you mom. what a special and loving daughter i have. love u kaitlyn

I will be getting back in…later today. I ended up actually leaving Wednesday evening to head to Mt. Pleasant…Jakie’s daycare school closed unexpectedly and so Mandy and Mollie are scrambling looking for other options…. I helped out, for a few hours Thursday morning before leaving to go to Conway.

Tomorrow…I should be caught up and back in action.

Until tomorrow…Enjoy the weekend, relax and love life.

About Becky Dingle

I was born a Tarheel but ended up a Sandlapper. My grandparents were cotton farmers in Laurens, South Carolina and it was in my grandmother’s house that my love of storytelling began beside an old Franklin stove. When I graduated from Laurens High School, I attended Erskine College (Due West of what?) and would later get my Masters Degree in Education/Social Studies from Charleston Southern. I am presently an adjunct professor/clinical supervisor at CSU and have also taught at the College of Charleston. For 28 years I taught Social Studies through storytelling. My philosophy matched Rudyard Kipling’s quote: “If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.” Today I still spread this message through workshops and presentations throughout the state. The secret of success in teaching social studies is always in the story. I want to keep learning and being surprised by life…it is the greatest teacher. Like Kermit said, “When you’re green you grow, when you’re ripe you rot.”
