Bonjour,
This morning, we got some things done around the house.
While the boys and I took a nap, Joe went up to the Anyama church to have Max help him with some letters. One of the letters is for the container that should arrive at the end of the month. The other letters are letters of introduction for beginning the friend-making process in Bonoua.
Joe plans to start going to Bonoua on Tuesdays. Next week, they will visit the different main offices and pass out Bibles with a letter of introduction. Then, he will start visiting out there on Tuesdays and eventually start a Bible study.
Danny wanted to make sure that he wasn’t going to be left behind this time when we went for a walk. He stood and held one of Gilbert’s shoes until he made sure that I had his shoes too. As soon as Danny got his shoes on, he stood by the door saying, “Walk.” until I opened the door. Danny did more walking this time than he normally does. The boys played with the Litson girls for awhile when we got back from the walk. Then, we headed home.
The Litsons will leave on May 7 for a one-year furlough. I haven’t told Gilbert yet that the girls are leaving. We aren’t ready to start answering those questions yet. : ) Gilbert and Danny are really going to miss playing with the girls.
Joe worked in the office for awhile this evening. I finished up the second set of lists needed for the container. The boys were having a great time chasing each other up and down the hallway.
