Bonjour,
Church went well this morning. It was not raining today; therefore, the attendance was back up.
I was back down with a headache and stomach bug. I rested all morning and felt better this afternoon.
Kristine taught my class for me. She said that the kids were wild. There are two boys who like to cause trouble. Believe it or not, it wasn't Danny and Gilbert. : )
When we were getting ready for church, Bonnie said, "Mom, you need to put your socks and shoes on, Honey." She is a mess.
On the way home from church, the kids saw some new puppies at the house at the top of our hill. They were so excited about those puppies. That was the first thing I heard about when they came in the door. On the way to church tonight, they were sure to point them out to me. They are really wanting a dog.
Brother Evans preached tonight. Danny and Bonnie decided to fight over a water bottle during the middle of the service. Danny was pulling on the bottle in Bonnie's hands and pulled Bonnie out of her chair. She landed on her head. Joe took them both outside. When they came back in, Bonnie started crying all over again; she had to make another trip outside.
Danny and Gilbert are becoming experts at making paper airplanes. Joe has been printing out patterns. Gilbert helps Danny with the numbers, and they are quite the team.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
