W'apow mu e,
This morning, we got some things done around the house. The kids cleaned their rooms. Then, they did their homework. After everyone finished their homework, I watched the kids swim. Then, we got ready for Bible Club.
One of the girls who rides to school with us comes for Bible Club. She brought a flower to put on Thumper's grave. Gilbert told me that he told the kids in his class that if they came to visit him that they should bring a flower for the dog's grave. I guess she listened. : )
I did the Bible Club out here today. Joe and Dan had to go into town to run some errands before Joe's departure on Monday. We had fifteen come for Bible Club. One of the boys translated into Fante for me; the majority of the kids who come do not speak much English.

Danny wrote a note for Daddy this morning. It said, "I can not wait for Dad. Danny" Danny wanted me to show it to Daddy and then scribble it out because he did not need to wait for him if he were already here. I told him that we could still save the note. Danny said, "That's a good idea. Then, we can use it again the next time Dad is gone."
It was nice and sunny this morning. Then, the rain came this afternoon. Everything is nice and green. We have plenty of water with all of the rain that we have been having.
The kids swam for a little bit after naps. Then, we went into town for supper. Business was slow when we first got to the restaurant; so, the waitress gave the kids all a piece of paper and a pen and told them to come show her what they drew. I think they ended up with four or five pieces of paper each. She stapled them all together for them before we left.
Nantsew yie!
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
