Bonjour,

Joe went into Anyama this morning to get the vehicle registration. He
then took the car papers to the mechanic. The mechanic took the vehicle
to be inspected, and it passed on the first try! Thank you for your
prayers about that.

The boys have watched Peter Pan over and over. Danny is usually Captain
Hook, and Gilbert is Peter Pan. They watched it once today; that was
all we could handle. : )

This morning, Danny asked Gilbert where something was. Gilbert said,
"It's with the 'Indias,' Danny." He meant "Indians." Then, Danny was
trying to climb on the couch. Gilbert said, "Danny, get off of the
'furnichair' right now!"

This afternoon, the children and I took a nap. Bonnie is still waking
up frequently in the night; so, I take a nap when I can get one.

Joe went into Abidjan to help Lenell and Kristine with the next step of
getting their Ivorian driver's license. Joe was able to pick up Dan's
for him. Joe's should be ready tomorrow.

We had a big storm this afternoon. The boys both found an umbrella and
wanted to go outside. It had pretty much stopped raining by that time.
They had great fun in the puddles. Bonnie was trying hard to get
outside to see what those brothers were doing.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
