Bonjour,
This morning, we had school. During Danny's Bible class, they have been
talking about the ten lepers and the one who went back to thank Jesus.
Danny had a picture of the one leper coming back to thank Jesus. He
said, "Mom, where is the animal?" This whole time, he has been thinking
of leopards instead of lepers. Gilbert was excited because he counted
by 5s to 100 all by himself on his paper.
Joe went into town to get me some medicine for my stomach. He also
ordered lunch at a Lebanese restaurant. I am starting to feel better.
The Posts had planned to come to Takoradi tomorrow to do their grocery
shopping, but their power was off today. So, they came today instead.
They picked up the lunch that Joe had ordered on their way to our
house. We all ate lunch together. Then, Joe kept all the kids while
Dan took Jennifer and me grocery shopping. I was the navigator.

The kids had a great time with the Post boys. Danny fell asleep on the
couch, but no one else took a nap.
Joe went to make some visits this evening. After supper, we gave hair
cuts. I bought some clippers in town today. While Joe was cutting
Danny's hair, Joe jokingly told Danny to quit sweating. Danny said,
"Well, it's hot." I said, "Surely you're not hot in Africa!" Danny
said, "What, Your shirt isn't hot in Africa?"
By 8:00, Bonnie was so tired. She couldn't stop crying. She sat in my
lap for a minute and was snoring within seconds. All the kids were
tired. They played hard today.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
