W'apow mu e,
The boys were not too thrilled that they had to go to school today and Bonnie didn’t. Bonnie was my helper. After we had done a few things, I sat down for a minute. Bonnie told me that I couldn’t work while I was sitting down. She was keeping me on my toes.
About noon, jetlag hit. Bonnie and I both took a nap. Then, we made some cookies.
The boys had a good day at school. They practiced for their program and played the rest of the day. They had to rest for a little while before church. They thought Bonnie needed to rest too.

After supper, we headed to church. We had a good service with nine in attendance.
Danny and Joe are both having trouble with asthma. Danny has been doing a couple breathing treatments a day. They have both had to use their inhalers as well.
Tomorrow is Danny's K-5 graduation combined with a program for K-4 through 5th grade. The boys were practicing their parts tonight. Danny is quoting a poem, and Gilbert is quoting three verses. I guess they decided today that they needed another song at the beginning when all of the students do the pledges together. They were singing Matthew 6:33, but some of the students did not know that one. They said if they didn't do it right the next time, that they were going to get them. After that try, they called the ones forward who were still having trouble. Danny was among them, and he started crying. They weren't in trouble; they were just going to help them with the song. Danny thought he was headed to see the principal.
Nantsew yie!
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
