Bonjour,

I think that the cold that has been going around has finally caught up with me.  It usually doesn't stay a cold with me though; it turns into bronchitis.  I started an antibiotic today.  I haven't felt very well all day.  I rested most of the day.  
We did school this morning.  Then, I took a nap.
Joe made potato soup for lunch.  It was very good.  The kids loved it.  Bonnie and Danny had thirds.
The kids and I all took a nap this afternoon.  Joe worked on sermon preparations.
I made sandwiches for supper and cleaned up the kitchen a little and was out of gas again.  Joe and the kids went to church.  I stayed home and rested.  Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow.
It rained most of the day today.  Joe said that they had a good crowd at church tonight for all of the roads being so wet and muddy.  There is only one man in the church who has a car; everyone else walks.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
