Bonjour,
 
Joe left at 7:00 this morning to head to the border.  He got to the border about 11:00 and was back home around 4:00.  He was able to get the car papers renewed without any trouble.  He rode the same public transport van coming and going.  He had to wait at the border for a couple hours for the vehicle to fill up.
 
The kids went to Bible Club this morning.  I worked on laundry.  Then, the Luther kids came over for a while.  Julie has been sick since Wednesday and is still not feeling very well.  Charlie took a boy with a leg wound to the clinic. 
 
After lunch, we tried to take naps.  The boys never did go to sleep.  Phillip, a boy who lives in the neighborhood, brought his older sister with him today to meet us.  The boys played with them all afternoon.  The Luther kids came back down to play too. 
 
This evening, we just took it easy.  Joe was tired from traveling most of the day.
 
A demain,
 
Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
