Bonjour,

We couldn't get any e-mails to send last night. So, you'll get two
e-mails this morning.

Last night, Lenell and Margie fixed a meal for us and came over for
Bonnie's "Birthday" party, as Gilbert called it. Lenell made a diaper
cake that is really cute. Nana made an edible cake; Gilbert and Danny
were both excited about that cake! Gilbert and Danny got to open
Bonnie's presents too.

Bob helped Joe figure out the sound system that we have. There are
supposed to be evangelistic meetings at one of the village churches this
week and next week. They usually have to rent a sound system. Since we
had one in the container, they can use that one now.

The boys came running in to hold Bonnie this morning. Bonnie was
eating; so, they had to wait. Gilbert said, "I'm just petting her,
Mommy."

Bonnie is doing great. She was wide awake this morning and looking all
around.

Danny was afraid that we would leave when he went to sleep. So, it was
quite a battle to get him to stay in bed last night. He kept climbing
out of his bed to make sure we were still here. He fell while getting
out a couple times and has a big knot on his head once again.

We put some pictures on Facebook last night. We are still trying to
send some in an e-mail for those who aren't on Facebook.

We will send another e-mail this evening.

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, Bonnie, and Nana
