Bonjour,

Joe went visiting this morning. He and Romeo spent most of the time
dealing with some problems with one of the girls in the church.

Danny was helping me make biscuits this morning. I had to mix up some
powdered milk. He told me that I needed to hurry and pour the milk in
before it melted.

The power went off for a couple hours this morning. The children and I
went down to the boutique to get some baking powder. The power was
still off when we got home. So, we took some pictures until the camera
battery died. Then, I videoed the boys telling me some Bible stories
until the video camera started acting up.

We all took a nap this afternoon. After naps, the boys saw that Julian
was playing soccer with some guys just down the street. Gilbert asked
if they could go watch the soccer game. Joe took Gilbert and Danny out
there, and Julian kept an eye on them. They sat there for about thirty
minutes. When they came back home, they were showing me how to play
soccer. Bonnie wanted to get in on the action.

Margie came over to visit just before supper time. Joe was working in
the office.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
