Bonjour,

We had a good day at church. There were 83 in attendance this morning.

I had 23 in my class today. A couple of the older boys promoted to the
other class. One boy cried when his mom made him go to the other
class. I was sad to lose them because they were two of the best
listeners and could always answer all of the questions.

I made pizza yesterday. I made an extra one for lunch today. We had
pizza and then took naps. We got up and headed back to church.

Romeo preached this evening. There were 23 in attendance tonight.

We visited with Lenell for a little while after church. Then, we came
home to call Grandpa Van Manen for his birthday. Gilbert likes to sing
Happy Birthday. Danny was more concerned about getting a present for
Grandpa. He went over to the Christmas tree, but there wasn't anything
left under there. So, he found a couple of his cars that Grandpa could
have. Bonnie was making noises. She likes to listen when we talk to
people on the computer.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
