Bonjour,
Joe went to do Bible Clubs with Dan this morning. Joe came back home after doing two clubs because he was sick. One young man got saved today. Joe rested this afternoon and was feeling better by this evening. He did not feel very well last night; maybe it was a 24-hour bug.
The kids and I did some cleaning this morning. Then, the kids did their homework.
We had forty-six at the Bible Club in the yard today. Bonnie was "helping" me. One little boy kept taking his shoes off; Bonnie kept trying to make him put them back on. His older brother got tired of Bonnie putting the shoes back on; so, he picked his little brother up and moved to a different spot.
The kids played for quite a while; we ate lunch a little later today. Then, we took naps. After naps, the boys went up to play with the Luthers. Bonnie decided she wanted to go up too after she "helped" me in the kitchen. The Luthers are planning to move to a town north of Accra at the beginning of March.
The kids helped in the kitchen this evening. Bonnie set and cleared the table. When she cleared the table, she brought each thing one piece at a time. Each time she brought something over, she would say, "Mom, your helper girl is here with another thing for you." Danny rinsed, and Gilbert dried. Danny almost got fired from his position because of his orneriness, but we made it through.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
