Bonjour,

Joe took the kids to school this morning.  They all made it through the day, but they were all tired and not feeling very well by the time they got home.  
Joe worked on getting estimates and supplies for projects at the other house.  He was able to get quite a bit accomplished.
I went up to the other house to measure windows.  Most of the windows up there are longer than the windows down here.  So, it looks like I'll be making some curtains.  There are also a lot more windows up there than there are down here.  We should have a nice breeze up there on top of the hill.  
Danny was eating an apple today.  He was looking at the core with the stem sticking up and said, "Mom, I think this could be a candle."
The church service went well this evening.
Please pray for Dr. Jim Vineyard.  He has been hospitalized with very high blood pressure and chest pains.  They are running some tests today.
Pray also for Catherine Hudson, missionary to the Ukraine.  Her liver is twice as large as it should be.  They are awaiting biopsy results to see if she has cancer.  Pray also for her father, Bob Ross, who is recovering from eye surgery; he has to keep his face down looking at the floor for two weeks.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
