Bonjour,

Joe went up to the Anyama church this morning. The plumber was there
working on Lenell's pump and water tank. Joe was able to get him
squared away. Joe went to make a visit. Then, he went back to make
sure that the plumber was doing things the right way. The plumber broke
Lenell's pump. Hopefully we can find the man who we bought it from.

This morning, I was asking the boys if they wanted toast or a biscuit.
I said, "Do you want toast or a biscuit, boys?" Gilbert said, "I'll
have a biscuit boys, please."

We had pork chops for supper tonight. Danny was calling them "chop porks."

Bonnie is quite the explorer. Her little knees are all red from
crawling everywhere.

Our dogs killed a black mamba in the yard this afternoon. Joe and the
boys had just been outside a little earlier. Praise the Lord for His
protection!

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
