Bonjour,
I am feeling better today. The sickness seems to be coming and going;
so, it is more than likely kidney stones.
My sister Amy had a baby boy today. He weighed 8 lb. 14 oz. and was 21
inches long. Both mother and baby are doing well.
We got some things done around the house today. Joe worked in the office.
The boys were chasing a "hopgrasser," otherwise known as a grasshopper.
It was inside the house; so, they thought that they needed to kill it.
Gilbert hit it with the shoe and came to tell me that it was dead.
Then, he came back and told me that it had come back to life. They
finally did kill it. Danny and Gilbert both took turns stomping on him
to make sure that he was dead.

Bonnie was not happy when her swing batteries died. We'll have to get
more batteries tomorrow.
Joe took the boys swimming this afternoon. Gilbert is getting a little
braver now; he should be swimming soon. I went out and videoed for a
couple minutes. I told Gilbert to jump so that Grandpa could see him
jump. He said, "Well, go get Grandpa." I told him that Grandpa would
see him on the video.
Lenell came to pick something up that she had left at the Litsons'
house. Gilbert saw her pull up and was so excited that she had come
back. We all went to see her for a few minutes.
A demain,
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
