W'apow mu e,
Gilbert and Danny were both up when I got up at 5:30. That was strange!
Danny seems to be feeling fine other than a persistent cough. He went on to school today. He said, "Mom, this evening at school, all I could do was cough." He meant this afternoon. He fell asleep a little after 7:00 this evening.
This morning, I made some cookies, worked on laundry, and did some cleaning.

After Joe picked the kids up from school, he and Dan went to visit a man who used to attend our church to let him know about Brother Blay's funeral. Joe came back home to eat supper. Then, he was off again to go to the Siekberts' church for a revival that they are having.
Gilbert wanted to make something for Danny's birthday. So, we decided to make a "fort" for some of their army men in a box. We lined the box with construction paper first. Then, he got some of their army men to put inside of it. It was all top secret. He didn't want Bonnie to come in while we were working on it for fear that she would tell Danny.
When the kids were clearing the table after supper, Gilbert decided to drink the last little drop of coffee in Joe's cup. He said, "Danny, you've got to try this; it's the most beautiful taste ever!" I would definitely not describe the taste of coffee as "beautiful," but some probably would. Danny was not convinced either.
Nantsew yie!
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
