W'apow mu e, 

No one came for Bible Clubs today.  The soccer fields are too muddy from all of the rain.  Dan nor Joe felt very well anyway.  

I have been busy packing, doing laundry, and trying to make sure that I haven't forgotten anything.  I leave Monday morning to head to the States for almost three weeks.  

I videoed the kids saying verses and singing this morning so that I can take some video to the grandparents.  I was going to do a tour of the house on video, but I didn't get that done yet.

The kids scrubbed the pool this afternoon.  They will do some more cleaning on Monday and then fill the pool back up.  

All three kids wanted to help me make supper.  After supper, I played a game of Cadoo with the kids.  Then, Bonnie helped me fold laundry.  Gilbert came in to put his pile away.  He came back and asked, "Did Bonnie help fold?"  I said that she did.  He said, "Well, she folded my shirt inside out, and she didn't fold my pants right either."  I told him that she was still learning and that he could refold them.  He didn't like that suggestion.

Nantsew yie!
