Joe took the kids to school this morning.  Then, he went to look at a couple vehicles; he is trying to help another missionary find a vehicle.  

I did some work at the computer today.  I was finishing up all of the reports for last year.  

This morning, Joe found a tree frog sitting in the water cooler.  It was in the first bucket of the four steps in our filtering system.

My helper came today.  She was in the pantry getting the broom and got stung by a scorpion.  Apparently it got her on the callused part of her foot because she was not in very much pain.  

The kids had a good day at school.  When Joe went to pick them up, he found out that they don't have school tomorrow.  It is a teacher workshop day.  I guess they had told the kids earlier in the week, but that was the first we had heard of it.  So, we are planning to go to the ocean tomorrow.

The kids played with the Luther kids.  We went up to visit with the Luthers.  Charlie had gone to town; we talked to Julie for a few minutes.  She is busy packing up their house.  They are going to be moving to a different area of Ghana.  

We went back home so that I could get supper ready. Joe washed the car.

Joe had bought a Fanta on the way home.  All three kids were supposed to share it.  But, I did not know that.  Bonnie asked me to open it for her.  The boys were still outside playing.  By the time they got home, she had almost finished it off.  The boys were upset with Bonnie.  Joe took the boys to the little corner boutique and bought the boys another Fanta.  Gilbert was so proud because he got to buy the drinks from the man all by himself.

The kids wanted to measure to see how much they have grown.  Gilbert and Danny have both grown an inch and a half since August, and Bonnie has grown an inch.  Danny is just an inch taller than Gilbert now.  Gilbert has caught up a little.  

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
