Bonjour,
This morning, we all went up to Lenell's apartment. Joe wanted to be up
there today to make sure that the plumber/electrician worked all day.
It was the first full day of work that the guy has put in yet. He
almost got everything finished today. He just has a couple things to
finish tomorrow.
Lenell put some things up on the walls. I told her when they were
straight. Then, we did some cleaning. We wiped down the walls and
baseboards. Then, we mopped the floors and put the rugs down. Her
water was on today for the first time. The only thing she needs to get
before moving in is a stove. Her apartment is looking very nice.
Gilbert and Danny like to help. We kept trying to find things to keep
them occupied. Danny took a nap in the afternoon. Gilbert had a great
time with a little broom and dustpan. He had to come and show us each
time that he collected anything. He also helped mop. Then, he helped
me do some dishes. He was the rinser.

Lenell, the children, and I went home about 16:00. Joe stayed until
19:00. The boys and I went swimming while Bonnie lay in her playpen.
She got upset; that ended our swimming.
We went for a walk with Lenell and Margie. The boys went to play with
Precious while I got supper ready.
Both boys went to bed early tonight. Gilbert fell asleep on the couch.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
